LSG vs PBKS Dream11 match top picks
Top Wicketkeeper Pick
Nicholas Pooran (6 matches, 170 runs, SR: 200.00)
Nicholas Pooran has been the standout middle-order batter for the Super Giants this season. He has 170 runs in six matches at a strike rate of 200. With Pooran showing confidence against both pace and spin, he is a top pick for your LSG vs PBKS Dream11 prediction team.
Top Batter Pick
Shubman Gill (5 matches, 228 runs, Average: 45.60)
Shubman Gill is Gujarat's leading run-scorer this season with 228 runs in five matches. He is averaging 45.60 with the bat and has a couple of big scores to his name as well. Given his ability against spin and knack for big runs, Gill is a must-have in your LSG vs PBKS Dream11 prediction team.
Top All-rounder Pick
Krunal Pandya (6 matches, 80 runs, 4 wickets)
Krunal Pandya has shown glimpses of form this season, picking up four wickets and scoring 80 runs. Krunal's best performance of the season came in Lucknow a few weeks back, where he picked up three wickets against SunRisers Hyderabad.
With Krunal likely to play a big role with bat and ball, he is a fine pick for your LSG vs PBKS Dream11 prediction team.
Top Bowler Pick
Rashid Khan (5 matches, 11 wickets, Average: 15.09)
Rashid Khan is Gujarat Titans' top wicket-taker with 11 wickets in five matches so far. He has a bowling average of 15.09 although he has been a touch expensive at times. With Rashid also adding value with the bat in the lower order, he is another must-have in your LSG vs PBKS Dream11 prediction team.
LSG vs GT match captain and vice-captain choices
Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya was decent in his most recent IPL outing, scoring 28 runs off 19 balls. He followed it up with figures of 1/24 in his four overs. With Hardik slowly finding form with both the bat and ball and given the conditions on offer, he could be a brilliant choice as captain or vice-captain in your LSG vs GT Dream11 prediction team.
KL Rahul
KL Rahul has struck some form of late, even scoring a fifty against the Punjab Kings in his last outing in Lucknow. He has 194 runs in six innings with an average of 32.33 to his credit. With Rahul averaging 46.93 in his IPL career, he can be backed as a viable captaincy pick for your LSG vs GT Dream11 prediction team.
