It’s an interesting clash between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL on Sunday, with one team trying to find its feet and the other putting all its eggs in one basket – Andre Russell.

As the teams gear up for an intense clash, fans can fight it out online through the IPL Fantasy League. Dream XI – official partners of the tournament – run a fantasy league per round and for each matches. Here we help you ace the daily contest.

BATSMAN: Chris Lynn (9.5 credits)

The Kolkata batsman has scored more runs with each outing, cracking 43 in the previous clash against RCB. Given that the game is being played on a good batting pitch like Jaipur, expect Lynn to get continue the rise in scores.

BOWLER: Shreyas Gopal (8.5 cr)

The Rajasthan leg-spinner is proving to be particularly difficult to negotiate. After picking up a three-for against Sunrisers, Gopal got three big fishes – Virat Kohli, ABD and Shimron Hetmyer – in his last clash. His economy is 5.5, which is worth its weight in gold.

WICKETKEEPER: Jos Buttler (10.5 cr)

The Rajasthan wicketkeeper batsman bounced back to form by hitting the second fifty of the season in the last match against RCB. If the Englishman gets going, fifty or more is almost guaranteed. Plus, dismissals with the gloves should add some icing on the cake.

ALL-ROUNDER: Andre Russell (10 cr)

Do we need to explain this one? Dre Rus is simply going to see ball, hit ball and send it out of the ground. Fantasy players aren’t even looking at his bowling and wickets anymore.

CAPTAIN: Andre Russell

VICE-CAPTAIN: Jos Buttler
