Today’s NAM vs NEP Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Zane Green: Zane Green didn't have the best of outings in the previous game against Scotland, unable to get going in the powerplay phase. However, Green has been a consistent performer for Namibia, often scoring big runs at the top of the order. With Green due a big knock, he is one to watch out for in this game.
Batter
Rohit Paudel: Rohit Paudal is one of the most exciting youngsters in the world, with his record speaking for itself. The Nepali batter can bat anywhere across the line-up, with his ability to finish games off being noteworthy. Given his ability against both pace and spin, Paudel can be a good pick in your NAM vs NEP Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounders
JJ Smit: JJ Smit had a decent outing with the bat in the previous game, but couldn't convert his start into a big one. He is a brilliant white-ball cricketer, with his knack for hitting big sixes being noteworthy. Although he is not likely to bowl much, JJ Smit's batting alone should set him apart.
Bowlers
Sandeep Lamichhane: Sandeep Lamichhane is Nepal's best bet with the ball in this format with an ODI career average of 15.81. His variations are a big threat in the middle overs, often yielding key wickets for Nepal. With the Nepali captain in decent form as well, he should be a must-have in your NAM vs NEP Dream11 fantasy team.
