Fantasy Tips and Suggestions:

Wicket-keeper: Both Andre Fletcher and Matthew Cross are picked in the side with their ability to clear the boundary being taken into consideration. While Cross does bat deep down the order, he could be promoted towards the death overs which makes him a decent option.

Batsmen: Anton Devcich is a proven performer in this format and can also chip in with his left-arm spin. Along with him, George Bailey and West Indian opener Lendl Simmons are also viable options in the batting unit. Scotland batsman George Munsey, who is known for his aggressive batting is one to watch out for as well.

Allrounders: Sunil Narine started the tournament on a high and looks good for more runs and wickets. He is a must have in the side along with Brampton captain Shahid Afridi. Sean Abbott's death bowling ability is crucial as well which makes him the third and final pick in the allrounders department ahead of Rohan Mustafa.

Bowlers: Fawad Ahmed was at his economical best on Friday and should be picked in this game as well. Zahoor Khan, who plies his trade for UAE, is also a decent selection while the left arm pace of Wahab Riaz should be backed to pick a wicket or two on Saturday.

Captain: Sunil Narine's allround abilities make him the perfect captaincy material along with Lendl Simmons and Andre Fletcher. While Simmons did score a good number of runs in last year's GT20, Fletcher is more than capable of scoring big runs at the top of the order to warranty the mantle of captain or vice-captain.
