Credits Remaining: 4.5.

I'll continue making two regular and one uncapped transfer for this match as well. As I've already got one player from this game, I'll be using the uncapped transfer to get someone from the next game.

Deadline for Transfers: 7:30 PM IST on Thursday, 29th April.


Uncapped Transfer

Riyan Parag (BAT) (RR) (7.5 Credits) - OUT: Riyan Parag isn't cheap enough to retain for an uncapped pick, and since I already have Sakariya from RR, I'll be releasing him.

Devdutt Padikkal (BAT) (RCB) (9 Credits) - IN: Devdutt Padikkal has looked incredibly fluent at the top of the order for RCB. He has fallen after getting off to good starts in the last couple of games, though, and will look to do better against PBKS.


1) Jos Buttler (RR) (WK) (10.5 Credits) - OUT: Jos Buttler is expensive to hold on a long-term basis. I'll consider him once again for RR's future games.

Sunil Narine (KKR) (ALL) (9 Credits) - IN: Sunil Narine has done a decent job with the ball thus far, and he could also contribute with the bat in this match. He has walked out to bat at no. 4 in the last couple of games. While he hasn't made the most of those opportunities, he could do so against DC.

2) Jasprit Bumrah (MI) (BOWL) (11 Credits) - OUT: I'd prefer holding Suryakumar Yadav over Bumrah as my option from MI, so I am releasing the latter.

Kagiso Rabada (DC) (BOWL) (10.5 Credits) - IN: I'm backing Kaiso Rabada to come good against KKR. He has done well in the past against KKR and will back himself to bowl in the right areas in this match.


Best IPL Fantasy Team for Match 25 - DC vs KKR

Chetan Sakariya, Glenn Maxwell, Varun Chakravarthy (Playing), Suryakumar Yadav, Sunil Narine (Playing), Rishabh Pant (Playing), Harshal Patel, Moeen Ali, Devdutt Padikkal, Nitish Rana (Playing) and Kagiso Rabada (Playing).

With two batsmen, one all-rounder and two bowlers, I feel I have a well-balanced team for this match. I'm expecting the out-of-form Kagiso Rabada and Nitish Rana to have a good game, with Rishabh Pant likely to fire as well.


Captaincy Picks

Captain and Vice-Captain Picks: Sunil Narine, Rishabh Pant, Kagiso Rabada and Nitish Rana.

Rishabh Pant, Sunil Narine and Kagiso Rabada will be my primary captaincy options for this match. As it's the second of two games in the day, it's difficult to decide the captain and vice-captain without waiting for the toss.

Kagiso Rabada (DC) (BOWL) (10.5 Credits): Kagiso Rabada is yet to hit his stride in the IPL this season. He'll look to do so against a KKR team against whom he has done well in the past.

Sunil Narine (KKR) (ALL) (9 Credits): Sunil Narine played a blazing innings at no. 4 against DC last season. He'll look to do something similar with the bat in this match while keeping things tight with the ball.

Nitish Rana (BAT) (KKR) (8.5 Credits): Nitish Rana hasn't played a big knock after his two half-centuries to open the season. He'll look to start cautiously before taking the attack to the bowlers in this match.

Rishabh Pant (DC) (WK) (10 Credits): Rishabh Pant would be devastated after his team agonisingly fell short by one run against RCB. He'll look to be back to timing the ball well in this match.

Varun Chakravarthy (KKR) (BOWL) (8 Credits): Varun Chakravarthy has done well with the ball this season. He bowled brilliantly against DC last campaign and will look to bamboozle the batsmen with his variations once more.
