Power Pick Player
Our power pick for today’s match between SRH and MI is David Warner.
In his last 15 innings against the Mumbai Indians in IPL, Warner scored 465 runs at an average of 38.75 (4 half centuries), making him a must-have player in both small and grand leagues.
Our Advice:
Jasprit Bumrah is undoubtedly one of the best white-ball bowlers in the world. He can trouble Warner and Bairstow with the new ball and can dismiss one of them early. So, pick him up in Small Leagues for sure.
We also advice you to pick middle order batsman of SRH like Manish Pandey or Yusuf Pathan in the Grand Leagues.
