    Rising Pune Supergiant, who are coming off a five-day break, will host defending champions Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Saturday.

    The Pune-based franchise will be hoping to prove that the win against Royal Challengers Bangalore wasn’t a one-off and that they are serious contenders to reach the playoffs.

    On the other hand, the Sunrisers have four wins from six matches this season and will be looking for a third consecutive victory.

    Here, we look at three players who you should look at picking in your fantasy team for this encounter.

    BEN STOKES [1,100,000]

    The most expensive buy at this season’s auction put in a brilliant bowling performance to guide Pune to victory in their previous game which saw him being named the Player of the Match.

    Although he is a bit expensive at 1,100,000, Stokes can fetch you points with both bat and ball which is a huge advantage. He has scored one half-century in the tournament and will be hoping to put in another useful contribution with the bat against the Sunrisers.

    DAVID WARNER [1,050,000]

    The Sunrisers captain registered a rare low score in the match against the Delhi Daredevils. So uncommon is a batting failure for Warner is that the knock on Wednesday was his first single-digit score in 17 IPL innings.

    The Australian opener will be keen to bounce back and put a big score on the board again – something he has regularly done for the Hyderabad-based franchise since 2014.

    BHUVNESHWAR KUMAR [900,000]

    Just like Warner, Bhuvneshwar is another player that must always be a part of your fantasy side when the Sunrisers are in action.

    The Indian fast bowler, who currently holds the Purple Cap, has been brilliant with the new ball and at the death overs. He will fetch you points with wickets and a good economical rate.
