Topmost Picks for SMP vs LKK Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Siechem Madurai Panthers

• Suresh Lokeshwar- the keeper-batter produced a controlled innings and let his team-mates play the aggressive shots in the last game. He is a reliable presence at the top of the order.
• P Saravanan- the left-arm spinner took all three of his wickets in the same over against Ba11sy Trichy. He is particularly hard to face when a batter has just come to the crease.

Top Picks – Lyca Kovai Kings

• S Sujay- it is hard to believe that Lyca Kovai Kings began this campaign without the 28 year old at the top of the order. He hit another six fours in his last innings.
• Gowtham Thamarai Kannan- the 29 year old is in fine form and will take the new ball in this game. Across his last two matches he has taken a combined 6-38.

Lyca Kovai Kings have quality all over their team, and we believe they will win. Considering the team combination, Lyca Kovai Kings is expected to win this match.
