Pitch Report

As seen in previous games at Cartama Oval, a high-scoring fixture beckons with little help on offer for the bowlers. Although the pacers should get some swing early on, the dimensions of the ground go against them. There isn't much turn on offer for the spinners, with the batters expected to target the middle overs. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 100 being a bare minimum at the venue in this format.

Today’s ITA vs ENG-XI Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Hassan Ahmad: Hassan Ahmad has been in decent form in the European Cricket Championship, with the Italian wicketkeeper once again scoring some quick runs against Finland in his previous outing. Given his ability to play the big shots, Ahmad should get the nod over Dan Lincoln, who also isn't a bad option for your ITA vs ENG-XI Dream11 fantasy team.

Batsman

Harrison Ward: Sussex youngster Harrison Ward has been a revelation with quick runs at the top of the order. However, Ward hasn't converted his starts, something he will be keen to do against the Italians.

All-rounder

Amir Sharif: Amir Sharif has been sensational in the European Cricket Championship with a heap of runs and wickets to his name. He showed glimpses of his ability against England in the reverse fixture and is a must-have in your ITA vs ENG-XI Dream11 fantasy team.

Bowler

Rich Edwards: Rich Edwards has been hard to put away, with the pacer putting in a good shift against Italy in the reverse fixture. Given his wicket-taking ability, Edwards is surely one to keep an eye out for in today's game.
