KKR vs PBKS Dream11 Match Prediction Choices For Captain And Vice-Captain
Liam Livingstone – Captain
Without question, Liam Livingstone is one of the most exciting players in the current IPL season. The English all-rounder is a must-have in every fantasy team because of his brilliant play with both the bat and the ball. His most recent effort for the Kings is evidence of his capacity to change the course of a match.
Livingstone played a superb knock of 82 runs off just 42 deliveries in his most recent game. Livingstone is a great choice for the captaincy of any fantasy squad thanks to his all-around skills.
Shikhar Dhawan – Vice-captain
With his consistent performance throughout the tournament, Shikhar Dhawan has emerged as the leading run-scorer for Kings despite playing only seven games this season.
He has amassed a staggering 292 runs at an average of 58.4 and a strike rate of 148.97, which clearly shows his dominance with the bat. Given his form and consistency, Dhawan can be a top vice-captaincy pick for any fantasy squad.
