Players To Avoid – LSG vs CSK Dream11
- Deepak Hooda – Deepak Hooda has the potential to go for big shots but he looks low on confidence this season. He has scored 44 runs so far at an average of 14.66. With his current form we cannot be sure of him to go big so we keep him out of fantasy teams for this match.
- Sameer Rizvi – He has not been part of any dream team till now. In 5 matches, Rizvi has scored just 14 runs. We are not backing him for a big innings as he is not confident enough to pull that off so we avoid him in the fantasy teams for this match.
