Topmost Picks for DCP vs GG Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Dubai Capitals

• David Warner- Warner is one of the most destructive batters going around in world cricket. Warner recently delivered a good show for Auckland in Super Smash.
• Kane Richardson- Kane Richardson is a good option to have in the team given his all-round skills. Kane can get the new ball to move while he can be effective at death as well. He is known to play match winning cameos with the bat.

Top Picks – Gulf Giants

• James Vince- Vince has been very consistent so far in ILT20 2024, scoring 98 runs in three innings, including one fifty. Vince is a dangerous player and will have to be at the peak of his prowess if Giants have to return to winning ways.
• Mujeeb ur Rahman- Mujeeb ur Rahman has been inconsistent but dew has been a concern for all bowlers. If he bowls first, Mujeeb can be a match winner for the Giants.
