Top Picks for PAK vs AUS Dream11 Prediction and Fantasy Cricket Tips:
PAK
Babar Azam is going to be a popular captaincy choice. The Pakistan captain is one of the most prolific batters in the world and will be a dangerman. Azam is nearing the 4000 run mark and he’d be looking to get there in style. He has been the rock for Pakistan and hence, will be the one to watch out for.
Fakhar Zaman has been in electric form lately and has scored big runs. The southpaw will look to make the most of Australia’s second-string attack and score big.
Shadab Khan is an experienced campaigner who has been effective in both the departments in this format for Pakistan, he has piled up 434 runs and hunted 62 wickets with the ball in this format.
Mohammad Rizwan has been in superb touch with the bat and has been consistently firing in all formats. The Pakistan wicket-keeper batter has aggregated 864 runs at an average of 28.80. Thus, he will be a top pick as vice-captain.
Haris Rauf has been picking wickets at regular intervals for his side in this format, he has a total of 14 wickets to his tally in 8 matches.
Shaheen Afridi is one of the top bowlers and he has the ability to not just swing the ball but also bowl the yorkers. The left-arm seamer has bagged 53 wickets in 28 ODI matches.
AUS
Aaron Finch is an aggressive top-order batsman and is the most experienced of the Aussie players in the series. Finch has 5232 runs at an average of 41.85 and will be looking to pick some form ahead of the IPL.
Marnus Labuschagne will be a popular captaincy choice. He is a top-quality batter and has been an integral part of the Australian setup for a while. In the absence of other big names, he will be key to Australia’s fortunes.
Marcus Stoinis is a brilliant all-rounder and will be a pivotal figure in this series. Stoinis will play the role of a finisher and will look to add to his tally to 1106. He also has 33 wickets to his name.
Adam Zampa is an aggressive bowler and looks to bag wickets. The leg-spinner has the quality and will be key on Pakistan’s slowish wickets. He has been Australia’s best white-ball bowler lately and will look to add to his tally of 97 wickets.
