Grand League Punts
- If you don't pick Ravichandran Ashwin in your fantasy team, you stand at the risk of losing a lot. Why? Ashwin is a beast against Australia and has dismissed David Warner the 'most-times' in T20s. There is a strong chance that Ashwin might be a vital pick for winning big.
- Marsh has opened on four occasions for Australia, averaging 88.33 across the four games. Not only that, he has been a thorn for the Indian side, with two knocks in the previous tour that blew the hosts away. If you are looking for a differentiator, Marsh should be a must-pick.
