Top Picks for SL vs AFG Dream11 Match:
Top Picks – Batters
Pathum Nissanka:
With 326 runs in 11 matches this year, Pathum Nissanka has enjoyed a lot of success in T20Is. He is the leading run-scorer for Sri Lanka in T20Is this year.
Bhanuka Rajapaksa:
He is one of the most destructive batters in this format. His statistics in T20Is don’t do justice to the talent that he possesses. His batting strike rate of 134.61 do speak a lot about him. Rajapaksa is one of the players to watch in this tournament.
Top Picks – All-Rounders
Wanindu Hasaranga:
It took 32 matches for Wanindu Hasaranga to reach 50 wickets in T20Is. He is the fastest to reach that mark in terms of time as he completed a 50-wicket haul in just 2 years and 61 days in International Cricket. Hasaranga has emerged as a force to reckon with in the shortest format of the game. Since 2021, he has taken 46 wickets in 25 matches at an average of 12.67. The only bowler ahead of him in this list is Tabraiz Shamsi, who has taken 48 wickets in 31 matches.
Mohammad Nabi:
He has already attained the legend status in Afghanistan cricket. The captain of the team has played 96 T20Is and has a chance to play his 100th game in this tournament. Nabi has made 1653 runs in T20Is at an average of 22.64 and has taken 80 wickets as well.
Top Picks – Bowlers
Rashid Khan:
After going wicket-less in the first 3 T20Is against Ireland this month, Rashid Khan bounced back to pick 3 wickets in the last 2 games of the five-match series. In his last appearance in The Hundred, he picked 3 wickets for just 25 runs.
Maheesh Theekshana:
In 18 T20Is, Maheesh Theekshana has picked 16 wickets at an average of 27.37 out of which 7 wickets have come this year. Theekshana might be the perfect partner for Hasaranga and the duo can wreak havoc in this tournament.
Top Picks – Wicketkeeper
Rahmanullah Gurbaz:
He is easily the best wicketkeeper pick for this match among the other players. He has made 676 runs in 27 T20Is at an average of 25.03 and a strike rate of 133.86 including four half-centuries.
