Smart Picks
One way or the other, Jason Holder (86 runs and 12 wickets) and Corbin Bosch (184 runs and 1 wicket) have made a difference in fantasy leagues. Together, they have also generated 32 fantasy points by taking 8 catches each.
With three consecutive two-wicket hauls, Obed McCoy currently sits as the third-highest wicket-taker (13) of the season. He has gone wicketless only once in 8 games.
Although Rashid Khan conceded 45 runs against St Lucia, he picked 2 wickets and also contributed a handy 26 with the bat. He has taken 4 wickets in 3 matches.
After going wicketless in the first two games, Akila Dananjaya has taken 5 wickets in his last 3 matches. The conducive pitches in Guyana should keep him in the hunt.
Power Players
Kyle Mayers has been showering fantasy points through his consistent run-making (295 runs at 37). Moreover, he has also helped garner bonus points by smashing 30 fours and 18 sixes. He has been a part of the Ultimate Team on 5 occasions.
Dwayne Bravo is yet to go wicketless in this edition. When he last bowled against Barbados a few weeks ago, he finished with a two-wicket haul.
Fantasy Tip of The Day
Given the slowness of the pitch in Guyana, picking spinners from both sides could help you stay ahead in the race.
