New Delhi, July 6 (IBNS): Ahead the faceoff between India and Srilanka in the ongoing World Cup 2019 on Saturday, former cricketer Yuvraj Singh has picked his own team on BalleBaazi.

From India, Yuvraj chose Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Rohit Shamra and Virat Kohli as the batsmen who he thinks will outperform during the match.

As far as the Indian bowlers from India is concerned, Yuvraj selected Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya and Yuzvendra Chahal to get the maximum number of wickets in the match.

Yuvraj’s list of top batsmen from Sri Lanka included Angelo Mathews, ThisaraPerera, and Kusal Mendis. Among the bowlers, he selected Angelo Mathews, Lasith Malinga, and Suranga Lakmal.

Yuvraj chose Virat Kohli as the captain of his side hinting that Kohli could have a big game against Srilanka. The southpaw has picked Mathews as the vice captain for the BalleBaazi.com fantasy side. 

Though India have already qualified for the semifinals, the men-in-blue would like to win the match to stay in the race to clinch the topmost position in the points table. At present, Australia are leading the table.

Sri Lanka have already crashed out of the tournament.
