Top fantasy picks and tips for GT vs RCB

Batter: Virat Kohli

Although RCB have been going through a bad run of form and are out of the play-off race, Virat Kohli has been at his very best season. The Indian talisman is currently the top scorer of the IPL this season and has been scoring runs at a consistent rate for his team. Not having him in a fantasy XI could prove to be a costly mistake.

Bowler: Sandeep Warrier

Sandeep Warrier was on fire for the Gujarat Titans during their recent clash against the Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Arun Jaitley stadium in Delhi. Warrier picked up 3 important wickets for GT, conceding just 15 runs in the 3 overs that he bowled. If he displays a similar performance as he did against DC, he could rack up big scores in the fantasy XI.
