Dependable Picks for Rario D3 Predictions
Batter 1 & 2- Hashim Amla ( OG batter 1 ) and Rahmanullah Gurbaz
A top-order batter should be your blind pick in D3. OG batter 1 has been announced as a replacement for Jonny Bairstow. He had a scintillating BBL where he was the 2nd highest run scorer with 458 runs at an SR of 144. Moreover, he is a handy off-break bowler who can bowl crucial overs in Powerplay and in middle overs.
Apart from being an explosive opener, Gurbaz is also a part-time wk. He is all set to open the innings. He has an SR of over 150 in the t20 format with over 3000 runs. Gurbaz had good outings in the recently held SPL, ILT20, and Abu Dhabi t10 leagues. KKR will highly depend on him for good starts.
Bowler 1 & 2- Sunil Narine and Arshdeep Singh
Sunil Narine should be your automatic choice and probably the 1st pick in D3. He is arguably one of the greatest t20 bowlers with close to 500 wickets at an eco of 5.99. Last season he had the best economy with 5,57.
Moreover, he adds some value to the bat. Though his form has deteriorated and teams know exactly where to bowl him he can still cause considerable damage. Rabada will be missing the initial games and Arshdeep’s role becomes too important as the leader of the bowling attack.
Owing to his performance in death overs last season and the season before that, he earned the national call and was India’s go-to bowler in the end overs in the t20 world cup. He has an eco of 8.7 in end overs in IPL with 20 wickets.
Last 2 picks- Andre Russell and Sam Curran
These 2 picks should be a no-brainer in D3. 2 of the finest all-rounders playing in this league. Andre Russell has been MVP twice and one can earn heavy points with his contribution with the bat and ball. He has an astonishing SR of 177 with over 2K runs. No one has scored more runs than him at a better SR. He also holds the record of hitting 50+ sixes in a season along with Gayle.
Sam Curran’s return to intl cricket after a long hiatus was nothing less than a dream. Since his comeback, he has scalped 26 wkts from 17 games and was MoM in the final as well as MoS in T20 WC.
Match Predictions for Rario D3 predictions
KKR is one of the weakest teams on Paper and they are already depleted with Shakib, Shreyas, and Lockie’s absence. Meanwhile, Punjab has a strong bowling attack and looks more settled than KKR. Expect PBKS to open their account.

Dependable Picks for Rario D3 Predictions
Batter 1 & 2- KL Rahul and David Warner.
A top-order batter should be your blind pick in D3 and these 2 are probably the safest picks in the entire league when it comes to picking top-order batters who are consistent. KL Rahul has managed to pile up 500+ runs 5 times in a row now since 2018. No one has scored more runs, or more 50s than him since.
Warner on the other hand holds the record of scoring 400+ runs in a season 7 consecutive times. Overall he has scored 8 times and last year he managed 450+ runs at an SR of 150+. The only issue is he has played only one ODI since his comeback from injury in February.
Bowlers 1 & 2- Kuldeep Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi
Given the nature of the surface its convenient to go for 2 leggies in D3.
Kuldeep had a very good outing last season with 21 wkts at an eco of 8.44. He regularly provided breakthroughs in the middle overs and was India’s best bowler in the recently held ODI series against Australia.
LSG would be expecting the same from Bishnoi and they will bring him on against Rovman Powell who has a weakness against leg spinners and doesn’t have a good head-to-head record against Bishnoi. He was one of the 3 signings of LSG before auctions.
Last 2 picks
Marcus Stoinis and Mitchell Marsh
These 2 Aussie all-rounders should be your top priorities in D3. Marsh was seen in some unreal form against India in the ODI series where he scored almost 200 runs at an SR of 110+. The way he was launching the ball in the stands was a sheer display of power and timing. He played a lion's share in Aus winning the 2021 WT20 and scoring 347 runs at an SR of 142 in BBL 2022-23.
Stoinis will help to earn plenty of points with his bowling. He can bowl at any stage of the game and LSG could use him in Powerplay with 2 overs and an over at the death along with Wood and Avesh.
Match Predictions for Rario D3 predictions
Both teams look solid on Paper but Lucknow is well-balanced given its bowling attack compared to Delhi who will be dearly missing the services of Anrich Nortje. Lucknow also has great batting depth with Krunal and Ayush in the lower middle order. Avesh too can use the long handle well.
