The Hyderabad vs Bangalore match will be played on the sluggish surface of Chennai where batsmen might find it difficult to time the ball. However, once you get used to the pace, it should get a little easier. Spinners are expected to play a key role. Here’s our pick for the fantasy fanatics from the Hyderabad vs Bangalore game.

Wicketkeeper – AB de Villiers and Jonny Bairstow are our two top picks for the wicketkeepers. De Villiers, we all know is a game-changer, while Bairstow has been in fine touch of late. He got his IPL campaign off to a decent start with a solid half-century.

Batsmen – David Warner, Devdutt Padikkal and Abdul Samad will be our batsmen. Warner is the most successful overseas batsman in the history of the Indian T20 League and can win you matches on his own. Devdutt Padikal is expected to be back in the playing XI. He was very impressive for Bangalore last year and we can back him to start well in the 2021 season. Another youngster that impressed us is Abdul Samad. He poses great abilities with the bat and can get some very quick runs.

All-rounders – For all-rounders, we’ll go with Washington Sundar and Glenn Maxwell. We all know what Maxwell can do with the bat, but he can also be handy with the ball in Chennai. The same can be said about Sundar, who has shown great skills with the bat of late.

Bowlers – Kyle Jamieson, Harshal Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Rashid Khan will complete our team. Kyle Jamieson was very impressive in his IPL debut. He has a great advantage with his height and can extract some extra bounce from the Chennai surface. Bhuveneshwar Kumar is another classy bowler who can be very dangerous with the new ball. Not much need to be said about Rashid Khan as he is among the best, if not the best bowler going around. Harshal Patel also showed great skills with the ball and picked up a 5 wicket haul in the last game.

Captain/ Vice Captain – We’ll back David Warner as the skipper while Glenn Maxwell can be backed as his deputy
