Topmost Picks for DCP vs MIE Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Dubai Capitals

• Sam Billings – Sam Billings has scored 280 runs in 12 matches. The batter has played crucial knocks for the team and will hold the key with the bat in the final.
• Olly Stone – Olly Stone has bowled well in the tournament. He has not gone wicket-less in any of the recent games and his economy has also been very acceptable.  He has nine wickets in five matches to his name.

Top Picks – MI Emirates

• Muhammad Waseem – Waseem started the tournament with a bang and played a few match winning innings before losing a bit of form. However, he has runs behind him and can be backed to come good in the final.
• Waqar Salamkheil – The mystery spinner is enjoying the conditions. Not a lot of batters have played him before so getting used to his action and variations is not easy. He has taken 16 wickets in the tournament.

DCP vs MIE Probable Winners:

The MI Emirates will start the match as favourites. Giants enter the match as defending champions, looking to make a statement in the first game. They retained the majority of their squad from the previous season and appear to have more batting depth and bowling quality. The Warriors are also strong on paper, but the Giants appear to be slightly better. So we’re rooting for the MI Emirates to win. Considering the team combination, MI Emirates is expected to win this match.
