TKR vs SKN Dream11 Prediction: This match between two contrasting teams in the competition might not be a mouth-watering contest but fantasy players can win big by picking right players who can fetch them big points.
The TKR have been the standout team in this competition without an iota of doubt and even after resting their star players in Sunil Narine and Dwayne Bravo in their second last game, they showed that they are too much for any team even without their star players. Although both these players returned to play against Jamaica Tallawahs, there is a high chance that they might not play today for 2 consecutive days.
SKN have turned out to be a 2 pointer team for the oppositions in this competition so far. They have just one solitary win in their 7 games so far and their dream of making the playoffs is all but gone. They will be playing to finish the season with a bang with some wins under their name and thid match against the big boys TKR can be that perfect start to them.

TKR team news
Injury unavailability
No injury announcement from TKR side
Playing combination, expected changes
• Sunil Narine played the last game, with them in the touching distance of playoffs, they might drop Narine instead of playing him for 2 consecutive games but if he plays, he is a must in the team. The another opener will be Lendl Simmons.
• The top and middle order will have Colin Munro who smashed a 54 ball 65 in their previous game, Darren Bravo, Kieron Pollard and Tion Webster. Dwayne Bravo played yesterday and there are high chances that he might play for 2nd consecutive day. If he doesn’t play, Sikander Raza might play in place of him
• Akeal Hosein, Khary Pierre, Fawad Ahmed will be their primary spinners along with Sunil Narine if he plays.
• Jayden Seales will be the one recognized pacer for them.
SKN team news
Injury unavailability
No injury announcement from SKN side
Playing combination, expected changes
• They have finally dropped Chris Lyn who was in unbearable form. They played 2 LHB as their opening batters in Evin Lewis and Kieran Powell and they will look to continue with this pair.
• Their top and middle order is a messed up one as they don’t seem to have a settled one. They brought back Joshua Da Silva for the previous game and he responded well with a 50. They have Ben Dunk and Denesh Ramdin as well.
• The Kiwi spinner Ish Sodhi was thrashed by Nicholas Pooran in the previous game but overall the spin trio of Ish Sodhi, Jon-Russ-Jagessar might just play together another in this game as well.
• Their captain Rayad Emrit is the sole shining light of the team who is bowling well but he couldn’t find an able partner for him. Alzarri Joseph will play as the fast bowling partner to Rayad Emrit who hasn’t impressed so far

Wicket-keepers– Nicholas Pooran, Johnson Charles
Batsmen– Shimron Hetmyer, Corey Anderson, Brandon King
All-rounders– Jason Holder, Kyle Mayers, Keemo Paul
Bowlers– Imran Tahir, Kevin Sinclair, Rashid Khan
Captain and Vice-captain
Sunil Narine– There shouldn’t be any doubts in the minds of fantasy players as far as captaincy opinion is concerned. He is a 4 overs bank to go with his hitting ability with the bat. He has scored 140 runs and picked 5 wickets in this CPL so far.
Colin Munro: The #3 bat has found his form in the previous game with a good 65 run knock. Though he struggled at the beginning, he got going in the later part of his innings. He has scored 198 runs from 7 games in this season this far.
Kieron Pollard: This is a no brainer considering the form Pollard is in. He has scored 2 back to back blistering knocks of 72 and 33 and is high on confidence. He has scored 165 runs at an average of 55 in this season.
X-factor and value picks
Ben Dunk: The veteran southpaw has been in good touch in this tournament so far and can come in real handy in grand leagues if he gets going. He has scored 144 runs in this season thus far.
Joshua Da Silva: He is not known for his explosive batting but he will accumulate the runs in a fine manner that will be useful for fantasy players and can be that x-factor in grand leagues.
Evin Lewis: He can tear apart any bowling attack in the world and can be a worthy gamble to use him as a captain for grand leagues. The southpaw has scored 197 runs in this competition till now.
Rayad Emrit: He is bowling all the crucial overs for his team and also comes into bat at #6. He has picked 10 wickets in this tournament and can be a real value pick for fantasy players.
