SRH vs RCB Pitch Report
The pitch at Wankhede has been a touch sluggish in recent matches. Although the bowlers are likely to get ample help off the surface, the dimensions of the ground go against them. Wickets in hand will be key, with the surface easing out a touch as the match progresses. With this being a day game, the pitch shouldn't change much. Teams have preferred to chase upon winning the toss, but batting first might not be a bad option given the setting of the game.
Today’s SRH vs RCB Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Nicholas Pooran: Nicholas Pooran comes into this game on the back of consecutive fifties, both in losing causes. However, Pooran's intent and explosive ability makes him a noteworthy option in the middle overs. With Dinesh Karthik likely to bat only in the backend of the innings, Pooran should get the nod in your SRH vs RCB Dream11 Fantasy team.
Batter
Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli, since returning to the top of the order, has shown signs of returning to form. Although he hasn't looked at his best, Virat's numbers and undeniable ability make him a good option for your SRH vs RCB Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Glenn Maxwell: Glenn Maxwell is one of the best players of spin in the world, with the Australian showing glimpses of his ability in IPL 2022. In addition to his big-hitting prowess, Maxwell adds value with his off-spin, making him one to watch out for in this game.
Bowler
Bhuvneshwar Kumar: Bhuvneshwar Kumar had a decent outing against the Delhi Capitals (DC), holding his own in both the powerplay and death overs. In the likely absence of T Natarajan, Bhuvneshwar's wicket-taking ability will need to come to the fore. With the veteran in decent form, he can be backed to pick up a wicket or two today.
