Transfers
Transfers Made: 3 | Transfers Remaining: 68.
1) Sam Curran (ALL) (ENG) (7.5 Credits) - OUT | Tim Southee (BOWL) (NZ) (8.5 Credits) - IN.
2) Jos Buttler (WK) (ENG) (10.5 Credits) - OUT | Trent Boult (BOWL) (NZ) (9 Credits) - IN.
3) Mitchell Starc (BOWL) (AUS) (9 Credits) - OUT| Mohammad Nabi (AFG) (ALL) (8.5 Credits) - IN.
I'm going in with a 3-1 (NZ-AFG) balance for this match, with Mohammad Nabi the Afghanistan representative once again.
The wicket at Melbourne assisted the seamers in the last game at the venue. Therefore, I'm picking Trent Boult and Tim Southee with the hope they can make the most of the new ball as well as pick up wickets at the death.
As for the players I'm taking out, Starc, Buttler, and Curran all play only after a while. I already have players from both England and Australia, and I'm taking them out to keep the team well-balanced.
T20 World Cup Fantasy 2022 - Best Fantasy XI for Super 12: Match 9 - NZ vs AFG: Thoughts and Captaincy Tips
Players playing in Match 9 (S12): Devon Conway (WK) (NZ) (8.5 Credits), Tim Southee (BOWL) (NZ) (8.5 Credits), Trent Boult (BOWL) (NZ) (9 Credits), and Mohammad Nabi (ALL) (AFG) (8.5 Credits).
I'm content in going with only the four players for this match, with Conway one among them. Tim Southee and Trent Boult are two players who have a good potential for points, especially if the conditions are overcast.
Nabi couldn't do much with the bat against England but chipped in with the ball. He could be a handy source of points from this match.
As for the captaincy, all four players could be decent options depending on the toss and pitch report.
