I have only one player from this fixture and will make two regular and one uncapped transfer from this match. Once again, a reminder to IPL Fantasy managers to make separate transfers for the afternoon and evening games.

Deadline for Transfers: 3:30 PM IST on Saturday, October 2nd.

Note: The team suggested in the article isn't guaranteed to be the final selection. In case of any unexpected team news at the toss, players will have to make the required adjustments, which will then be updated in the article for the next match.


Transfers

Transfers used: 2, Transfers remaining: 27.

1) Rahul Tripathi (BAT) (KKR) (7.5 Credits) - OUT | Avesh Khan (BOWL) (DC) (7 Credits) - IN. (Uncapped Transfer)

2) Venkatesh Iyer (ALL) (KKR) (6 Credits) - OUT | Shreyas Iyer (BAT) (DC) (9.5 Credits) - IN.

3) Varun Chakravarthy (BOWL) (KKR) (8 Credits) - OUT | Jasprit Bumrah (BOWL) (MI) (11 Credits) - IN.

Since I have only one player from the MI-DC match, I should make two regular and one uncapped transfer to get a decent team out. Avesh Khan is the best uncapped option from this match and should get a good IPL Fantasy haul. Whenever these two sides have met, it's been hard to predict who scores the runs. This is due to the strength of their respective bowling attacks.

Despite his early dismissal against KKR, Shreyas Iyer looks the most stable batter from DC and should get back among the runs. Steve Smith (BAT) (DC) (9.5 Credits) could be a decent differential pick if he plays. Jasprit Bumrah has been the best bowler whenever these teams have played, and he's a reliable option to have. I'll have zero credit in the bank after making the above transfers.

I've got four players from this match and three real captaincy options and I'm pretty happy with the team. Rohit Sharma looked MI's best batter on sluggish surfaces in Chennai in the first leg of the season. He could be their star batter in similar conditions in Sharjah. Bumrah loves playing against DC, and he should pick up a couple of wickets, at least.

Shreyas Iyer and Avesh Khan are reliable picks from DC. While Iyer should anchor DC's innings, Avesh should continue as DC's strike bowler with Rabada.

Players playing in Match 46: Shreyas Iyer (BAT) (DC) (9.5 Credits), Avesh Khan (BOWL) (DC) (7 Credits), Jasprit Bumrah (BOWL) (MI) (11 Credits), and Rohit Sharma (BAT) (MI) (12 Credits).

Captaincy: I have three main captaincy options in Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Shreyas Iyer. Considering Bumrah's form and his record against DC, I'm likely to make him either my C or VC. This leaves me with the choice between Rohit and Shreyas Iyer, which I'll make post the toss.

Transfers

Transfers used: 2. Transfers remaining: 25.

1) Jasprit Bumrah (BOWL) (MI) (11 Credits) - OUT. | Yashashvi Jaiswal (BAT) (RR) (7 Credits) - IN. (Uncapped Transfer)

2) Rohit Sharma (BAT) (MI) (12 Credits) - OUT. | Moeen Ali (ALL) (CSK) (8.5 Credits) - IN.

3) Shreyas Iyer (BAT) (DC) (9.5 Credits) - OUT. | Ravindra Jadeja (ALL) (CSK) (9 Credits) - IN.

I've opted to go all-in on CSK this match because I believe they will dominate this RR team. It has to be said that almost all the teams have found it difficult to score runs against CSK's strong bowling lineup, and I feel there's more value in investing in Jadeja or Bravo over Samson or Evin Lewis.

I've gone for Yashasvi Jaiswal over the other available options in RR's bowling attack as I wanted some cover in their batting. Moeen Ali, meanwhile, should deliver with both bat and ball in this match and is a leading captaincy contender. I'll have eight credits in the bank after these transfers.

I've gone with five players for this match and am pretty confident with my team selections. CSK's top three has done exceedingly well this season, and they should continue that run in this game. A special mention for Moeen Ali, who could also bowl some overs considering the left-right balance of the RR team.

Ravindra Jadeja has been the go-to spinner for CSK, and he's carried his form from the first leg to the UAE. He should star with the ball for CSK, but could also get some opportunities with the bat and is a solid option for this match.

As for Yashasvi Jaiswal, I'm not expecting much returns from him, considering how good the CSK seamers are. However, I hope that he outscores the other uncapped options on the RR side.

Captaincy: With four quality options from CSK in my team, captaincy could be a confusing prospect for this match. However, Moeen Ali's excellent performance against RR in the reverse fixture and the number of left-handers in their team make him a leading contender.
