Hence, we have suggested five players from the RCB vs LSG clash who could be a perfect choice for your Dream11 teams on various fantasy cricket platforms.
Top Dream11 fantasy picks for the RCB vs LSG clash
1. Virat Kohli
The first name which comes to mind is Virat Kohli. The former RCB captain has scored 179 runs at an average of 59.66 and a strike rate of 162.72.
He has already slammed two half-centuries, and it won’t be a surprise if he scores another 50+ score on Wednesday. He has been in excellent batting form and can also be picked as the captain of the Dream11 team.
2. Rajat Patidar
The RCB captain, Rajat Patidar, has not just scored runs; in fact, he has made a statement with the bat. The prime example was in the last game against MI. He came to bat when MI started to fasten their grip, but his 17-ball fifty took the game away from them.
He has been in blistering form and has scored 195 runs at a strike rate of 214.28 with 18 sixes. Patidar will be a good pick on a fantasy platform.
3. Phil Salt
Phil Salt is coming off a Man of the Match performance against Mumbai Indians. He slammed 78 off 36 balls, and his knock was the key reason that RCB dominated the game. That is the skillset of this player, who can win games single-handedly.
With RCB, he has a clear plan to go after the bowling and make sure that his team gets a good start. That is what makes him more dangerous.
4. Rishabh Pant
The LSG captain Rishabh Pant has one match-winning knock under his belt. The last time these two teams met, Pant scored an unbeaten 118 off 61 balls. That is what his fans will expect from him.
He himself will be eager to take his team to win, which will require his contribution as well. Secondly, Pant is also the keeper and has already taken four catches behind the wickets. That is another area where he can earn extra fantasy points.
5. Aiden Markram
Aiden Markram is the leading run-scorer for LSG this season. He has had good starts in almost every game. His recent scores are 45, 22, and 30, which shows that he is getting starts and a big knock is around the corner.
Markram will like the deck in Bengaluru and can produce a good knock. He is also a handy spinner who can bowl a few overs in the middle.
