Fantasy Tips of the Day
The all-round duo of Andre Russell and Akeal Hossain, especially, down the order has been a major boost not only for Melbourne but also for fantasy players.
For Hobart, Shadab Khan has been generating vital fantasy points. In addition to picking wickets consistently, he has been batting at No.4 and scoring runs.
All in all, Hobart boast of a star-studded batting line-up, but their bowling has been thin on numbers this season. On the other hand, Melbourne has been impressive in all departments.
