Transfers

Transfers Used: 5, Transfers Remaining: 6

Transfers Out:

1) KL Rahul (KXIP) (12 Credits)

2) Mohammed Shami (KXIP) (9 Credits)

3) Sam Curran (CSK) (8.5 Credits)

4) Chris Gayle (KXIP) (10 Credits)

5) Steve Smith (RR) (10 Credits)

I'm transferring out the above-mentioned players because their respective teams' matches have all finished. I've made it a priority to release the more expensive players or the overseas players.

Transfers In:

1) Ishan Kishan (MI) (7.5 Credits)

2) Yuzvendra Chahal (RCB) (9 Credits)

3) Chris Morris (RCB) (9 Credits)

4) Shikhar Dhawan (DC) (10 Credits)

5) AB De Villiers (RCB) (11.5 Credits)

The decision to bring in Ishan Kishan was made so that I have a wicket-keeper in my team. Neither of the wicket-keeping options from DC and RCB were convincing, and that's why I went for Kishan from Tuesday's match.

The rest of the transfers are pretty self-explanatory, with these players being the standout performers for their respective teams this season. While there are a couple of decent differentials like Josh Philippe (RCB) (7 Credits) or Washington Sundar (RCB) (7.5 Credits), I'm opting for the bigger names because they will look to step up and deliver.

Best IPL Fantasy Team for Matchday 45 - DC vs RCB

Shikhar Dhawan (Playing), Shreyas Iyer (Playing), Devdutt Padikkal (Playing), Chris Morris (Playing), AB De Villiers (Playing), Yuzvendra Chahal (Playing), Kagiso Rabada (Playing), Rahul Tewatia, Shubman Gill, Manish Pandey, and Ishan Kishan.

Captain and Vice-Captain Picks: Shikhar Dhawan, AB De Villiers, Shreyas Iyer, Chris Morris, or Kagiso Rabada.

There are plenty of good captaincy options for this IPL match. Both batsmen and bowlers should be considered for captaincy, with the pitch supporting both categories of players. AB De Villiers and Shikhar Dhawan are currently my top picks for this match.
