Transfers

Transfers used: 2, Transfers remaining: 18.

1) Shubman Gill (KKR) (BAT) (9 Credits) - OUT | Ruturaj Gaikwad (BAT) (CSK) (8 Credits) - IN. (Uncapped Transfer)

2) Wriddhiman Saha (WK) (SRH) (8.5 Credits) - OUT | Rishabh Pant (WK) (DC) (10 Credits) - IN.

3) Rashid Khan (BOWL) (SRH) (10.5 Credits) - OUT | Anrich Nortje (BOWL) (DC) (9 Credits) - IN.

I'm making two regular transfers for this match to bring six players into my team. Ruturaj Gaikwad is a must-have, considering that he's the favorite to win the Orange Cap now. The youngster has been exceptional this season and looks set to carry on his form.

Rishabh Pant hasn't got going in the UAE leg yet, but he has shown some positive intent. He has regularly promoted himself up the order and looks set for a big score.

Lastly, I've opted for Anrich Nortje over Kagiso Rabada because of his consistency. DC will want to break CSK's successful opening partnership, and Nortje should be the player to do that. However, Kagiso Rabada is an equally good option. I'll have two credits in the bank after those transfers.

I'm happy with six players from this match, although I am hesitant about going without Faf Du Plessis. Shikhar Dhawan should come good in this game after some middling scores in the last couple of games.

Avesh Khan has been in terrific form and he'll look to continue that with Anrich Nortje, whose performances have gone under the radar. Rishabh Pant has been getting a steady stream of points from cameos with the bat and dismissals behind the stumps. It looks like the stage is set for him to get a big score in this match.

Moeen Ali and Ruturaj Gaikwad are my two CSK players, and I could change my mind on that before the match. While Gaikwad's selection is self-explanatory given his blistering form, Moeen will look to convert his starts into better scores.

I've come to understand that he won't get to unleash the bowler in him that often, though, with MSD preferring to operate more with the pacers.

Players playing in Match 50: Shikhar Dhawan (BAT) (DC) (10.5 Credits), Moeen Ali (ALL) (CSK) (8.5 Credits), Avesh Khan (BOWL) (DC) (7 Credits), Ruturaj Gaikwad (BAT) (CSK) (8 Credits), Anrich Nortje (BOWL) (DC) (9 Credits), and Rishabh Pant (WK) (DC) (10 Credits).

Captaincy: Now that we're reaching the business end of the season, IPL Fantasy managers will cash in their remaining transfers to fill their teams with lots of players from one match. That further complicates the captaincy dilemma. I have multiple quality captaincy options in my team and will make the final decision after the toss.
