IND vs SL Dream11 Top Fantasy Picks All Rounders, Batsman, Bowlers, Wicket Keepers

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav has been in staggering form in T20Is and has established his reputation as one of the best batters going around in this format of the game. He is piling on runs for fun and will be looking to extend his purple patch against Sri Lanka at home.

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya is a very important member of the Indian team in limited-overs cricket. Pandya contributes a lot, both with bat and ball for the Men in Blue. One thing that makes him a top-notch player is his consistency, which is why he is a terrific pick for any fantasy team.

Avishka Fernando

Avishka Fernando is coming off from a decent show in the Lanka Premier League 2022 where he scored 339 runs in 10 games. He ended the tournament as the leading run-scorer.

Wanindu Hasaranga

Wanindu Hasaranga is a champion bowler who has a very good record against India. Indians have struggled against the spinners of late and Sri Lanka will need their ace spinner to pull off some magic if they are to have any hopes of beating team India at home.

Axar Patel

Axar Patel has been brilliant for India. He doesn't carry a reputation of a match-winner but has played a pivotal role in India's success in recent times, both with bat and ball. Axar with his left arm spin can create a lot of trouble for the Sri Lanka batters.
