Transfers
Transfers Made: 1. | Transfers Remaining: 87.
1) Rashid Khan (ALL) (GT) (10.5 Credits) - OUT | Cameron Green (ALL) (MI) (9 Credits) - IN.
2) Yudhvir Singh (BOWL) (LSG) (5 Credits) - OUT | Tilak Varma (BAT) (MI) (8.5 Credits) - IN (Uncapped Transfer).
I'm backing the same MI players who delivered against SRH to do the trick once more against the Punjab Kings.
The reason I'm sticking with Cameron Green instead of going for Ishan Kishan or even Rohit Sharma is that I want a player who bowls at the inexperienced PBKS batting order because they're almost guaranteed wickets, and in addition to batting at No.3, Green does just that.
Tilak Varma has been in terrific form this season, and he is an easy choice for the uncapped transfer.
IPL Fantasy 2023 - Best Fantasy XI for Match 31 - MI vs PBKS: Thoughts and Captaincy Tips
Players playing in Match 31: Jitesh Sharma (WK) (PBKS) (6.5 Credits), Sam Curran (ALL) (PBKS) (9.5 Credits), Arshdeep Singh (BOWL) (PBKS) (8.5 Credits), Cameron Green (ALL) (MI) (9 Credits), and Tilak Varma (BAT) (MI) (8.5 Credits).
Despite Jitesh's terrific knock against RCB, I won't be considering him for captaincy. Maybe it's time I start looking past Sam Curran as a captain pick, with Cameron Green a much better option on paper for this match. Arshdeep Singh and Tilak Varma are decent picks too.
