Advice:

• It is a good batting pitch. So take all the top order batsman from both the teams and choose one of them as C or VC for small and grand leagues.
• You could take Ajinkya Rahane in place of Cheteshwar Pujara as well.
• All rounders will play crucial role in this match. Choose them using your own instinct and make one of them them C or VC.
• R. Ashwin is safe and best option as all rounder.
• Rangana Herath and Umesh Yadav are safe and best option as bowlers.
• Danushka Gunathilaka/Dhananjaya de Silva, Rohit Sharma/Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar/Mohammed Shami, are risky players. Do not take them in small leagues.

I’m sure this is going to be a awesome match and a thrilling series!
