Pitch Report:

Sydney Cricket Ground so far has played brilliantly in all 3 games and close to 180 can be expected to score from the side batting first. It may slow down in the 2nd half of the innings like it did in the SA v Ban match and IND v NED match.

Dependable Picks:

Devon Conway

Just like his international and IPL debut, Conway has made a brilliant start to his world cup campaign. He was instrumental in NZ reaching 200 and that was the highest individual score by a visiting batter in Australia. The intent of Fin Allen with the stability Conway provides at the top has turned out to be a lethal combo for NZ. Conway's biggest plus point is his ability to take down any kind of spin. He was dearly missed in the final last year after getting ruled due to a self-inflicting injury. An opener should always be your 1st choice pick in the D3.club and if he is a player named Devon Conway then it should be an automatic choice.

Wanindu Hasaranga

In the bowling department, their success mainly depends on Hasaranga and Theekshana. Hasaranga created a record by picking the most wickets in the middle overs by a spinner in a season while playing for Bengaluru and is one of the best bowlers in the t20s currently. His trajectory and bowling height makes it difficult for the batters to read him. Theekshana bowls crucial overs in the Powerplay and was one of the main reasons for CSK's turnaround in the 2nd half. In addition to that, he is a gun fielder and a handy batter. Should be your no 1 pick in the D3.club.

Differential Picks:

Tim Southee

The most improved T20 bowler over a couple of years. He picked 8 wickets at an economy of 5.7 in the last WT20, 14 wickets from 9 games in IPL at 7.8 eco, and started this T20 World Cup with a spell of 3/6. A wicket-taker with the new ball and in the end overs makes him D3 users a guaranteed pick.  

Dasun Shanaka

Sri Lanka's biggest strength in the batting department is their skipper Dasun Shanaka who has been one of the best finishers in the format this year. Since the beginning of 2022, he has scored 456 runs at an SR of 142. He can fetch u plenty of points in the D3.club on his day.

Punter’s Corner- Risky Pick

Finn Allen

It is a double-edged sword, he operates on the lines of a high-risk high-reward strategy and was successful against Australia by scoring a quickfire 16 ball 42 runs. The Blackcaps took a bold decision to drop Guptill and blood in Finn Allen. Allen is one of the most destructive openers in the format and his SR in the 1st 6 overs is around 155.
