Bellary Tuskers vs Hubli Tigers Final Prediction

BLARY vs HT Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain

Wicket-keeper

Chidhambaram Gautam has hit form in perfect time for the Tuskers, with two 90+ scores in his last two innings. The Tuskers captain is an excellent choice behind the stumps. KB Pawan is worth consideration at 8.5 credits, however, after scoring well himself recently too – though not quite to the same extent.

Batsmen

Mohammed Taha is the leading run scorer in the tournament so far and starred in the second qualifier. He should be considered must-pick at 9.5 credits. Devdutt Padikkal leads the charts for the Tuskers, meanwhile – including top-scoring when these teams last met. He should also be considered a must-have. That leaves space for one more batsmen, and Abhishek Reddy has scored consistently well enough at the top of the Tuskers’ order. 

All-rounders

The difficulty is balancing the cost of the team, with Krishnappa Gowtham as high as 11 credits and Vinay Kumar ten credits. Gowtham finished the group stage in stunning all-round form, however – he has 201 runs and 20 wickets so far. Kumar, meanwhile, batted well in the two previous matches but fell short last time out. Even for their cost, they can both be considered worth selecting but the combined price is simply too high. Kumar has done less with the ball and may be the one to discard despite his batting. Codanda Ajit Karthik is nine credits and the lowest scoring of the five all-rounders (though he has still racked up 142.5 points so far). He was key to the Tuskers’ group stage win against the Tigers.

Bowlers

With funds maintained, Shreyas Gopal can be selected – he is just nine credits but has bowled well since his late arrival at the tournament. Team-mates Mitrakanth Yadav and Abhilesh Shetty have plenty of wickets between them too. The latter’s form is really good and he is a bargain at eight credits. That leaves 8.5 credits for the final bowler – not quite enough for Prasidh Krishna, but enough to select KP Appanna, who picked up some important wickets in the Tuskers’ qualifier.

Captain/Vice-captain

Krishnappa Gowtham is a must-pick as captain, even if he fell short last time out. His all-round form was there for all to see in the previous two games as everything he touched seemed to turn to gold. There are plenty of form players for the vice-captain pick, meanwhile. Chidhambaram Gautam has batted superbly in the last two games, and may just have the edge over Mohammed Taha, the tournament’s top run scorer.
