Topmost Picks for DCP vs ADKR Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Dubai Capitals

• Rahmanullah Gurbaz –  Rahmanullah Gurbaz couldn’t score much against Sharjah but he has been one of the most consistent batters in this format of the game and played an 81 run innings vs MI Emirates.
• Dushmantha Chameera – Dushmantha Chameera was a standout bowler for Capitals in the last game vs Sharjah and bagged a four wicket haul. He bowled well in the first game as well so he’s got off to a perfect start to the tournament.

Top Picks – Abu Dhabi Knight Riders

• Andries Gous – Andries Gous had a great start to the tournament and played a whirlwind knock of 95 vs Desert Vipers. Gous failed in the previous game but he has runs behind him and that should keep his confidence high heading into the next game vs Dubai Capitals.
• Sunil Narine – Sunil Narine is the team’s lead spinner. He picked 2-23 in the first game and was not required much in the previous game. He would hope that the batters put enough runs on the board and he spells magic with the ball.
