#3 Shaheen Afridi (NOT) - 9 Credits
Shaheen Afridi has once again proved why he is regarded as one of the best bowlers in world cricket currently. After a shaky start, Shaheen has found his lost form and he has picked up 11 wickets from eight games, bowling at an economy rate of 8.87.
The right-arm pacer has been very consistent with his lines and lengths in recent games. His wicket-taking ability makes him a must-have pick to be picked as vice-captain of your DER vs NOT Dream11 fantasy teams.
#2 Colin Munro (NOT) - 9 Credits
Colin Munro is currently the leading run-getter for Nottinghamshire this season. The veteran New Zealand batter has picked up nearly 300 runs from eight games at an impressive average of 36.75.
The left-handed batter possesses the ability to put any bowling unit in the world under pressure with his destructive batting. Looking at his current form, the fantasy users should make him as captain or vice-captain of their DER vs NOT Dream11 fantasy teams.
#1 Wayne Madsen (DER) - 9 Credits
Wayne Madsen has played a major role in the recovery of Derbyshire this season. He is currently second in the list of leading run-getters of the tournament, having scored 405 runs from seven games at an average of 81.
With four fifties and one century to his name, Madsen is going to be a real threat to the table toppers. If you want to do well in fantasy cricket, then Wayne Madsen is an excellent choice to be picked as captain for the DER vs NOT game.
