Mumbai Indians Fantasy Cricket League Team
Now we will have a look towards the probable XI of MI Team Player that can be played in the first match. As we all know how important it is to know which players are playing in the match for a Fantasy gamer. Here you will get a glimpse of the MI Playing XI.
Now let us take a look at the best possible combination for the Mumbai Indians IPL team during the upcoming IPL season.
Openers: Rohit Sharma and Quinton De Kock/Chris Lynn
Mumbai Indians IPL Team management have decided to go with Rohit Sharma as an opener rather than playing him in the middle order. Quinton De Kock seems to be settled in the role of the opening in the previous season and certainly be picked ahead of Chris Lynn, also he provides right left combination at the top which makes him 1st choice opener. It seems extremely tough for MI to accommodate Chris Lynn in the line-up unless they decide to slot Rohit Sharma down the order or bat Lynn at three; thus weakening the bowling attack.
Rohit Sharma and De Kock have become the integral part of the MI Fantasy Cricket League Team so they won’t be tinkering with the pair.
Middle-order: Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Keiron Pollard, Krunal Pandya
Suryakumar should be batting at No.3 position His form in the domestic tournaments has been splendid and he seems to be at his best at the moment. This season can be the turning point in his career as he has been scoring bulk of the runs in domestic and India tour and with India looking for No 4 spot option, he can be the answer for this. Ishan Kishan, Pandya brothers and Pollard will act as a floater in the team and will play according to the situation. This middle order certainly look power packed and strong enough to beat any team.
Bowlers: Jasprit Bumrah, Rahul Chahar, Lasith Malinga, Nathan Coulter Nile/ Trent Boult
With the current setup, MI has as many as 7 bowling options for them so bowlers will be picked according to the situation. Jasprit Bumrah will lead the pace attack along with the legendary and his role model Lasith Malinga. We certainly cannot forget the last year final where he delivered under pressure so he still has gas filled in his boots. Rahul Chahar is expect to lead the spin department along with Krunal Pandya. It will be a toss-up between Trent Boult and Nathan Coulter-Nile but with Trent Boult injury is concerned, Nathan could be the first choice fast bowler.
Mumbai Indians League Team: Best XI
Quinton de Kock (WK), Rohit Sharma (C), Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, Rahul Chahar, Trent Boult/Nathan Coulter-Nile, Jasprit Bumrah, and Lasith Malinga.
