Top players for DC vs SRH Dream 11 Match 

Top Players – Delhi Capitals 

Rishabh Pant – The Delhi Capitals skipper has put behind his tragedies and come back to the game with fresh vigour. Rishabh Pant has already scored a few half-centuries and also led his side remarkably well as seen during the game against Gujarat Titans. 

Khaleel Ahmed – This year Khaleel Ahmed has finally shown his coming of age with some good performances with the ball. The 26-year-old has become a potent bowler with the new ball and has also been effective towards the end of the innings. With the selectors keeping a close eye, Khaleel Ahmed has been one of the best bowlers during this early stage of IPL 2024. 

Top Players – Sunrisers Hyderabad   

Travis Head – In the last few months, Travis Head has become one of the most dangerous batters in the world. His blistering century against Royal Challengers Bengaluru had the entire fan base holding their breaths. Travis Head will want to continue his fine form and potentially cause more carnage against the Delhi Capitals unit.  

Heinrich Klassen – One of the biggest threats for the bowlers during the IPL 2024 season has been Heinrich Klaasen. The South African has been severe against the spinners and the pacers and scored runs at will and good strike rate. 

DC vs SRH Must Picks for Dream 11 Cricket 

Kuldeep Yadav – Indian cricket fans will be happy to see Kuldeep Yadav back in his fine form. The left-arm wrist spinner has been bowling really well this year and has also given Delhi Capitals a few key wickets with his deceptive bowling. 

Aiden Markram – Yet another batter who has been impressive in the limited chances he has gotten has been Aiden Markram. The former SRH skipper has already played a few crucial knocks for his side this campaign. Aiden Markram will remember this venue with fondness as he scored his first-ever ODI World Cup ton against Sri Lanka here. 

Suggested playing XI No.1 for DC vs SRH Dream11 Cricket Fantasy 

H Klaasen (C), R Pant (VC), T Head, A Sharma, T Stubbs, JF McGurk, A Patel, A Markram, P Cummins, K Yadav, and K Ahmed

Suggested playing XI No.2 for DC vs SRH Dream11 Cricket Fantasy 

H Klaasen, R Pant, T Head (C), A Sharma, T Stubbs, A Patel, A Markram, P Cummins, K Yadav, K Ahmed (VC), and I Sharma 

DC vs SRH Risky Captaincy Choices 

Prithvi Shaw – The young opener didn’t fare well in the last game against the Gujarat Titans. Prithvi Shaw has shown a glimpse of the vast amount of talent he has with the bat with a few key knocks this season. 

Bhuvneshwar Kumar – After a slow start to the season, the veteran pacer is finally finding his groove. Bhuvneshwar Kumar though is still not back to his best and with more than half the season left to play the 34-year-old will hope to get back to his best with the ball. 

Players you should avoid 

Shai Hope – The West Indian star is playing in the first season of the IPL and hasn’t had many chances to show his true talent. While Shai Hope is a great talent with the bat, his performances so far haven’t been much to write home about. 

Mayank Markande – Young spinner Mayank Markande was instrumental in SRH winning the massive game against RCB. His wicket of Virat Kohli changed the game as the Bengaluru side were giving a spirited chase. Despite this high, Markande has been expensive with the ball which will worry the SRH team and its fans.
