Dream11 Prediction for England vs Australia 3rd T20I: Best Fantasy Picks

Best fantasy choices (Batters) ft. Head, McGurk

Travis Head completely mauled down the English bowling attack with a 19-ball fifty in the first match. He should be a sure-shot pick in today’s match as well. Australia played Jake Fraser-McGurk in the previous game and he shone massively as well, hammering a 29-ball fifty. Will Jacks has not made enough runs in this series, you can go ahead with him in case Mitchell Marsh continues to remain absent. In grand leagues, however, users can take a punt on Jacob Bethell, who blasted Adam Zampa for 20 runs in an over in the 2nd T20I.

Best fantasy choices (All-rounders) ft. Livingstone, Stoinis

No dearth of all-rounders in this match as there are five possible options, all equally dangerous. Interestingly, Dream11 has now put Liam Livingstone in the ‘all-rounder’ category. This means, your one all-rounder is sorted. He has racked up 323 points in just two games! Astonishingly, Matthew Short also bagged a fifer in the previous game, meaning Australia could hand him the ball at any time today. Sam Curran and Marcus Stoinis could be considered, given they are always designated to bowl at least 2-3 overs in every game. Cameron Green is another option but he is batting too low. Hence, Curran can be picked since he bowls at least two overs at the death.

Best fantasy choices (Wicket-keepers) ft. Salt

Now coming to the wicketkeepers, Dream11 users should go ahead with Phil Salt and Josh Inglis. Salt has played 29 innings in Manchester, making 810 runs at a strike rate of above 150. Inglis, meanwhile, has had a decent series as well, making 79 runs for Australia.

Best fantasy choices (Bowlers) ft. Zampa, Archer

20 wickets in match one and 13 in the next. Quite a few bowlers have thrived in the opening two T20Is. But we now only have 3 slots left. The Old Trafford’s surface is yet to host a 200+ T20I affair, meaning that there will be something for the bowlers once again. Skillful bowlers would always pose a threat here. Jofra Archer, Reece Topley, and Josh Hazlewood – all were rested in the previous game, meaning one could make a comeback in Manchester. If they don’t, the set of Sean Abbott, Adil Rashid, and Adam Zampa could be the way to go. Rashid has a decent record at this venue, mustering 25 wickets in 20 innings at an economy of 7.89.

When selecting your Dream11 team, consider these top picks based on their current form, stats, and match conditions:

• Batter: Travis Head,, Will Jacks, Jake Fraser-McGurk
• All-Rounders: Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran, Matthew Short
• Wicket-keeper: Phil Salt, Josh Inglis
• Bowlers: Adil Rashid, Adam Zampa, Sean Abbott

Today Dream11 Prediction: Top Captain & Vice-Captain Picks

The highly picked captain in Dream11 is Liam Livingstone, with 34.07% pick, followed by Matthew Short at 21.3%. And these two can be the safest options for you as well. However, for the grand leagues, you can go ahead with Phil Salt or Sean Abbott. Travis Head is another great-value option, given his red-hot form.

• Captain: Liam Livingstone – Livingstone had a blast of a series, racking up the most points (323). His batting prowess has been phenomenal and has been taking crucial wickets with his willy bowling as well.
• Vice-Captain: – Phil Salt – The English skipper will be rearing to lead from the front. He has a stellar record at Old Trafford as well, meaning you can take a punt on him.
