MUL vs QUE Risky Captaincy Choices:

Shahnawaz Dahani has taken ten wickets in seven matches at an average of 24.20. He has conceded runs at an economy of 10.52 which makes him a risky choice to be the captain of your fantasy cricket team.

Asif Afridi played his first game in the tournament against Karachi Kings. He opened the bowling attack and failed to pick a wicket. He gave away 19 runs in three overs. It might be a huge risk to pick him as the captain of your team.

Player you should avoid:

Blessing Muzarabani has taken five wickets in four matches at an average of 25.80, an economy of 8.06, and a strike rate of 19.2. Apart from a three-wicket haul against Peshawar Zalmi during the 16th match of the season, he has not been able to deliver a memorable performance. Hence, you can avoid him in your team.
