KAR vs LAH Dream11 match top picks
Top Wicketkeeper pick
Matthew Wade (3 matches, 56 runs, Strike Rate: 107.69)
Wade is a great wicketkeeper pick. He's an explosive batter, but Wade is yet to arrive to the party and has looked surprisingly off colour so far.
Top Batter pick
Haider Ali (3 matches, 71 runs, Strike Rate: 120.34)
Ali has done reasonably well with the bat. He has scored 71 runs in three games, but his team will be expecting bigger knocks.
Top All-rounder pick
Sikandar Raza (1 match, 19 runs, Strike Rate: 135.71)
Raza is a world-class all-rounder in this format of the game. He scored 19 runs in the last game but failed to pick a wicket.
Top Bowler pick
Shaheen Afridi (1 match, 1 wicket, Economy Rate: 6.75)
Afridi is one of the most devastating fast bowlers in the game, and it’s difficult to play him. He picked up a wicket at an economy of 6.75 in the last game.
KAR vs LAH match captain and vice-captain choices
Imad Wasim
Wasim has been nothing short of wonderful so far. He's the second-highest run-scorer for his team and has made 85 runs at a strike rate of over 166. He's also their leading wicket-taker with four scalps at an economy of 5.00. He could prove to be a fantastic captaincy pick.
Shoaib Malik
Malik is the top-scorer for the Kings. The veteran batter has hammered 141 runs in three games at an average of 70.50 as well as a strike rate of 151.61. He has scored two half-centuries.
