Maxwell has scored 160 runs so far and picked 7 wickets in 6 matches. Seeing his recent form, he is certainly a key all-rounder for this match. We are backing Maxwell as the dream11 vice captain for this fantasy team.
Webster is fully supporting Maxwell as another all-rounder in form for the Stars. Webster has smashed 178 runs and picked 5 wickets so far. He is also a good option for dream11 captain in this team.
Edwards has been in good form with both the bat and ball this season. He has scored 78 runs at a strike rate of 136.84 and picked 8 wickets at an average of 18.62. We are backing Jack Edwards as the dream11 captain for this fantasy team.
Wicket-keeper Josh Philippe is hitting the ball this season. He is currently the leading run scorer for the Sixers with 141 runs in 6 matches at a strike rate of 131.77.
