PROBABLE XIs
KKR - Gill, Rana, Tripathi, Morgan(C), Karthik(Wk), Russell, Narine, Cummins, Varun, Nagarkoti, Prasidh
Probable changes - Mavi/Warrier/Vaibhav in place of Nagarkoti & Prasidh. Jackson/Venkatesh in place of Tripathi.

Probable changes - Jaiswal in place of Vohra. Unadkat in place of Gopal. Tye in place of Mustafizur.
Safest C/VC choices for all leagues
Russell, Buttler
C/VC choices for SL/Mini GL teams
Samson, Rana, Morris, Cummins
GL C/VC choices
Morgan, Tewatia, Gill, Miller, Narine
Highly risky combos
Dube+Tripathi
Sakariya+Varun
My Fantasy Team
(Pre Toss)(0.5 credits remain)
Wk - Buttler, Samson
Bat - Gill, Rana, Tripathi
AR - Dube, Russell, Morris
Bowl - Varun, Cummins, Sakariya
Options - To keep Morgan/Miller in place of Tripathi, Narine/Tewatia could be kept in place Morris
Differential Picks (if any of them plays) - Venkatesh Iyer, Sheldon Jackson, Vaibhav Arora, Andrew Tye, Yashasvi Jaiswal/Anuj Rawat (whoever replaces Manan Vohra)
