RAJ vs HYD Dream11 Prediction: Batters and Wicket-Keepers
David Warner
Barring just 2 matches, Warner has given more than decent points in all his other 4 matches as his fantasy points scored this season read 76, 10, 70, 50, 85 and 7.
In his last 5 T20 matches at Delhi, Warner has scored 218 runs which includes 2 fifties and a thirty and thus has given an average of 50+ fantasy points in these 5 matches.
Talking about his recent record against Rajasthan he has scores of 4, 48, 37 and 69 in his last 4 matches. Also, interestingly none of the bowlers who has dismissed him when he has played against Rajasthan in the past are currently part of the squad this season and thus David Warner can be dominant against them.
Manish Pandey
In his 4 matches this season, Manish Pandey has scored 162 runs and has scored 82, 6, 68 and 91 fantasy points, respectively and thus has given great returns in 3 out of the 4 matches.
With scores of 83*, 54 and 61 against Rajasthan in his last 3 matches, Pandey will certainly be having a psychological advantage over Rajasthan in this fixture.
Even with Kane Williamson in the playing XI, it looks like Pandey will continue to bat at number 3 and as a matter of fact, his batting average is the best while batting at number 3 than batting at other positions in the Indian T20 league.
Sanju Samson
Sanju Samson is the highest run getter for Rajasthan this season with 229 runs in 6 matches and has given good fantasy points in odd matches. His fantasy points scored in these 6 matches read 59, 62, 29, 25, 23 and 179.
With scores of 36, 26, 48*, 102*, 40 and 49 in his last 6 matches against Hyderabad, Sanju has given loads of fantasy points against them in recent times.
Not to forget that he can also give bonus wicketkeeping points as well in the form of catches/stumpings and run outs.
Also, he has represented Delhi in a couple of seasons in the Indian T20 league (in 2016 and 2017) and thus he has enough idea as to how this surface behaves and can play accordingly as he did score 42 in just 27 balls against Mumbai in the last match here.
RAJ vs HYD Dream11 Prediction: Bowlers
Rashid Khan
With 9 wickets in 6 matches, Rashid is the leading wicket taker for Hyderabad this season and has given consistent fantasy points in all his matches barring just 1 match in which he was wicketless (against Mumbai). He has given an average of 58 fantasy points per match this season which is a great number.
Against Rajasthan, Rashid has taken 7 wickets in 6 matches with never being wicketless and thus has assured fantasy points in every match played against them.
The Delhi pitch might assist the spinners more as more matches are being played, and thus Rashid can extract even more from the surface and thus can give more fantasy points.
Mustafizur Rahman
He might have only 5 wickets in his 6 matches this season but among the three left arm seamers of Rajasthan (Sakariya and Unadkat are the other 2), Fizz is the one who has given more fantasy points in the last 3 matches.
As context, he does have a decent record against his parent team Hyderabad as in his 2 matches against them he has taken 1/18 and 3/24 and thus psychologically will be feeling confident against them.
Given that he mostly bowls 2 overs at the death, he can be crucial against the struggling middle order of Hyderabad.
RAJ vs HYD Dream11 Prediction: All-Rounders
Chris Morris
With 11 wickets and 48 runs Morris has delivered with either ball or bat and has given consistent fantasy points in every match barring just one. He has scored 54, 134, 10, 60, 83 and 62 fantasy points in his 6 matches so far this season.
He has played most of his matches for Delhi in the Indian T20 league and thus has enough idea as to how this surface plays and thus can be beneficial in giving fantasy points with both bat and ball.
As context, in his 14 T20 matches at Delhi, he has taken 16 wickets and scored 170 runs (at a strike rate of 193) which adds up to an average of 45+ fantasy points per match at this venue.
He has a good record against Hyderabad in recent matches as in his last 5 matches against them he has taken 7 wickets and scored 39 runs which also comes down to an average of 45+ fantasy points per match.
Among all players for this fixture, he has the 2nd highest Fantasy Gully rating with 9.0 and should be a
