LAS vs NY Pitch Report

The pitch at the Grand Prairie Stadium has looked for batting. However, it has been at its best for the batters in the first half. The wicket has seemingly slowed down with the progress of the game, and chasing a target here has looked difficult, especially in the last three to four games. The pacers who have used their slower ones cleverly have had the most success on this track.

Fantasy Value from the pitch report

• As mentioned above, the wicket will be at its best for batting in the first innings. So, pick more top-order batters from the team that bats first.

LAS vs NY Fantasy Cricket Tips

Los Angeles Knight Riders Heavy Fantasy XI

• Unmukt Chand and Jason Roy are the highest run-scorers for the team in the tournament. If you are backing the Knight Riders to win this match, then you need to keep both players in your fantasy XI. 
• Spencer Johnson has been the best bowler for the team in MLC 2024. His strike rate so far makes him one of the better choices for the match. 
• Sunil Narine has not been at his best in the tournament so far. However, his wealth of experience and track record of performing under pressure make him a good differential choice for the game. 

MI New York Heavy Fantasy XI

• Nicholas Pooran should be the first name in your fantasy XI if you are backing the MINY. He has had a great impact on the batting performances of the team, and for them to win, Pooran needs to fire.
• Rashid Khan has been the other man, barring Pooran, who has delivered some great performances for New York in MLC 2024. The Afghan superstar has been in good all-round form, and his presence in the fantasy XI gives you the chance to pick up points in both innings of the game. 

LAS vs NY Winner Prediction

The Los Angeles Knight Riders are in better form and momentum coming into this game and will be the favourites to win the match. However, the toss will play a crucial role in the match’s fate, and the team batting first will have an edge. 

LAS vs NY Top Player Picks

Unmukt Chand has been in a decent form with the bat in MLC 2024 [X]

Unmukt Chand (LAS)

• MLC 2024 Stats: 149 Runs in 5 Matches
• The Indian-origin US batter has not been very consistent in the tournament. However, whenever Unmukt Chand has got going, he has ensured that his contributions result in a win for the team. He was in good touch in the last game and looks like one of the safer picks for the fantasy contests of the match. 

Spencer Johnson (LAS)

• MLC 2024 Stats: 8 Wickets in 5 Matches
• The Australian speedster has been the prime performer for the Knight Riders with the ball. Spencer Johnson has been their highest wicket-taker and looks like one of the better picks from this team. 

Nicholas Pooran (NY)

• MLC 2024 Stats: 137 Runs in 5 Matches
• The West Indian keeper batter has been the biggest contributor to the team in the tournament. Much of the MI batting’s performance has depended on how Nicholas Pooran has performed in a game with the bat. He will be the safest choice from the MINY team. 

Rashid Khan has been in a good all-round form in the tournament [X]

Rashid Khan (NY)

• MLC 2024 Stats: 7 Wickets and 102 Runs in 5 Matches
• The Afghan superstar has been the other major contributor to MI, barring Nicholas Pooran. Has bowled a couple of very efficient spells and has also played a great knock with the bat. Having Rashid Khan in your fantasy XI gives you the chance to pick up points in both innings of the game.

LAS vs NY Differential Picks

Andre Russell (LAS)

• MLC 2024 Stats: 94 Runs and 1 Wicket in 5 Matches
• The Jamaican all-rounder has been totally off-colour in the tournament. Andre Russell has yet to put up a show with either the bat or the ball. However, cricket fans around the world are well aware of his match-winning abilities, and that makes him a crucial differential pick for the game. 

Dewald Brevis (NY)

• MLC 2024 Stats: 58 Runs in 2 Matches
• The young South African batter played a very mature and composed innings in the last match. Although he failed to ensure a win for his team, Dewald Brevis impressed with the way he approached the game. However, consistency has been a concern for Brevis in his still budding career, and hence, he is one of the differential picks for the game. 

LAS vs NY Fantasy Expert Advice

Given the playing conditions and the form of the players in the two teams, a 2-2-4-3 or a 2-4-3-2 combination could be rewarding for the match.
