Atlanta Riders vs Texas Chargers Top Batters

Mohammad Hafeez to be the top batter for Atlanta Riders

Mohmmad Hafeez has been in phenomenal form in the recently concluded Zim-Afro T10 series, smashing 194 runs in 10 matches at an average of 21.56 and striking at 190.20. Hafeez ability to clear the infield and play classical pickup shots in the powerplay overs and a good footwork against spinners has helped him score runs at a fast pace in the T10 matches. Considering his recent form, we back Mohammad Hafeez to be the top batter for Atlanta Riders against Texas Chargers.

Robin Uthappa to be the top batter for Texas Chargers

Robin Uthappa is always known as a specialist short format player with the ability to pierce the field and smash huge sixes with ease. Uthappa was part of the recently concluded Zim-Afro T10 series, where he smashed 259 runs in 10 matches at an average of 28.78 and striking at 181.12. Uthappa’s recent run of form is a huge positive for the Texas Chargers ahead of the tournament. Considering how good Uthappa has been in recent times, we back him to be the top batter for Texas Chargers against Atlanta Riders.

Atlanta Riders vs Texas Chargers Top Bowlers

Mohammad Hafeez to be the top bowler for Atlanta Riders

Hafeez was the second leading wicket taker in the recently concluded Zim-Afro T10 series, where he picked up 12 wickets in 10 matches at an average of 11.58 and bowling at an economy of 8.68. His accuracy with the ball and bowling around the off-stick line has reaped rewards and we back Hafeez to come good against Texas Chargers and be the top bowler for Atlanta Riders.

Mohammad Irfan to be the top bowler for Texas Chargers

The tall left arm pacer is the master of bowling inswingers to the right handers and the height from which he releases the ball makes it tough for the batsman. Irfan can be lethal on surfaces that have bounce and a bit of swing. The surface at Lauderhill suits his bowling and we back Mohammad Irfan to be the top bowler for Texas Chargers against Atlanta Riders.
