Grand league punts
In the last game against Delhi Capitals, Virat Kohli slammed a crucial half-century to lay a solid foundation for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in their bid to post a formidable first innings total.
En route to this knock, he became the first batter to score 7000 runs in the league. With 419 runs in 10 innings at an average of 46.56 this season, Kohli has been in fine form and will help you gain maximum points.
Faf du Plessis is another key player who could help you with fantasy points. The skipper of the Bangalore outfit is the leading run-scorer in this edition, with 511 runs in 10 innings at an average of 56.78 and a strike rate of 157.7.
Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan were the star performers for the Mumbai Indians against Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium. The duo slammed brutal half-centuries to help the five-time champions chase 216 runs.
With the surface assisting strokeplay, they will hold the key to the fortunes of Mumbai and also help you win more points.
