Dream11 match top picks
Jos Buttler, the top pick for wicketkeeper, has scored 80 runs in two SA20 matches. He has scored one fifty and appeared to be in fine form in both games. Buttler is a top pick for your DUR vs. PRL Dream11 prediction team due to his explosive batting ability at the top of the order.
Heinrich Klaasen, a top pick for a pitcher, has also done well in SA20 and has a 36-run knock off 22 balls when he starts the game. He is being utilized by Durban as an enforcer in the middle order and is a good player of both pace and spin. Klaasen would make a great addition to your DUR vs. PRL Dream11 prediction team given his current form.
On his SA20 debut against the Super Kings, top all-rounder Evan Jones took three wickets, putting him in good stead. Jones is a good choice for your DUR vs. PRL Dream11 prediction team because he can also score runs quickly down the order.
Reece Topley, a Top Bowler Pick, also had a good start to the SA20, taking two wickets and allowing just 27 runs. In the powerplay, he was good enough to get Ryan Rickelton killed in his second over. Topley is a great pick for your DUR vs. PRL Dream11 prediction team because he has been in good form recently and because the Englishman is likely to bowl in the last over as well.
match captain and vice-captain choices
With a 32.18 average in T20Is, Quinton de Kock is one of the best openers in the world. In two matches, he has scored 89 runs, including a superb 78 against the Joburg Super Kings. Your DUR vs. PRL Dream11 prediction team could use de Kock as captain or vice-captain due to his experience and ability to take on the bowlers.
In SA20, David Miller is yet another competent batter who has come out swinging. In two matches, he has scored 50 runs, and his strike rate of 142.86 is noteworthy.
