Grand League Punts

> Don't sleep on Heinrich Klaasen, who's been in outrageous nick of late. In his last 5 matches, Klaasen has averaged 48.25 and has struck at 180.4. His last 5 scores read 47 (29), 26 (12), 36 (20), 53* (27) and 31 (19). Klaasen has particularly been devastating against spin, averaging 110 and striking at 183.33. It would be naïve to not at least vice-captain him in the form he's in.

> Mohit Sharma is another must-have in the XI. He's picked up 5 wickets in his last 2 games and has been extremely efficient in Ahmedabad, taking 8 wickets in his last 3 matches at the venue. In GT's last match in Ahmedabad, in fact, Mohit took a four-fer.
