In all the three matches so far, the paces have been flogged with scant respect by swashbuckling openers. This is a new trend noticed in the league this year. Will pacers pierce the top order? Keep guessing.
Analysis
DC
The top order is strong with in form KL Rahul and three hard hitting overseas players- McGurk, Stubbs, Faf du Plessis. Only these can score runs. The middle order is weak- only Axar can get runs. The all rounders are mere average with Axar again in the lead. Strong pacers in Staarc, M Kumar and Natarajan. But, only Staarc has played some cricket in the recent past. Kuldeep and Axar are good spinners. Most of the domestic players are new and not in form. Overall, an average team.
Likely to Shine- KL Rahul, Stubbs, Axar, Staarc
LSG
Miller, Marsh, Pooran and Pant are experienced run getters in the top order. Markram, adoni and Samad/A Ahmad (all three all rounders) in the middle are good batsmen. There is depth in the batting line up till Number 7. Bishnoi and Markram are effective spinners. The pace department of S Thakur, Hangargekar and Akash Singh/ P Yadav is average. Overall an average team.
Likely to Shine- Pant, Miller, Badoni, Thakur
