Mumbai T20 League 2019 – NBB vs AA Fantasy Preview

Day 2 of the 2019 Mumbai T20 League and it’s another double header with NaMo Bandra Blasters taking on ARCS Andheri in Match 4 of the season. It’s a Group B match of MPL 2019 where the Bandra franchise will be playing their first game of the tournament while the Andheri franchise will be playing back-to-back games, fresh off a loss against SoBo SuperSonics on Day 1.

As per what we saw in Game 2 on the opening day, you would know that this makes a good batting pitch as the Wankhede always does and anything below 160 is almost always chased down. Remember to select a batting heavy fantasy team not just today but throughout the Mumbai T20 league.

NaMo Bandra Blasters

Delhi Capitals captain Shreyas Iyer should be the first player on your team sheet for this NBB vs AA game. As you saw on Day 1, both matches saw a batsman scoring 90+ and whoever made them captain would’ve made a field day in fantasy leagues. After a successful IPL 2019 and 2019 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, the Bombay boy Iyer is my captain for this game.

My wicket-keeper pick also comes from the Bandra franchise in Eknath Kerkar, someone who has been around for a while and has a lot of experience to bring to the fore. He comes off a 46 in his last professional T20 game. Rohit Kambli is someone you could pick with the ball while Sujit Nayak’s all-round abilities could make him your x-factor player for this game.

ARCS Andheri

You can select a better team here considering you’ve already seen AA play once. Andheri captain Iqbal Abdulla has now gone 5 continuous games with just a solitary wicket and his 0/47 on MPL 2019 Day 1 means I’ll avoid him from my team. There was a lot of talk about Vineet Sinha and he indeed delivered with 1/27 and ended as the only wicket-taker for his team.

Tushar Deshpande is another player you must have in your Howzat (sign-up with code “READ1234”) fantasy team today. He had 0/31 in the last game but has the ability to tear apart line-ups; he also gave away only 3 runs in his first 2 overs against SuperSonics. Make sure you pick captain Kevin Almeida who is a #3 batter and also bowls an over or two. The 24-year old Akhil Herwadkar is also a must in your team, coming into this tournament with 7 first-class centuries under his belt.
