Here, we focus on helping you navigate your way through the former.
BATSMAN
Rohit Sharma – MI (10.5 credits)
After getting off to good starts in the last two games against Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kings XI Punjab, Rohit Sharma is due a big score. The Mumbai captain has been scoring at a good rate but his shot selection has let him down at times.
BOWLER
Imran Tahir – CSK (8.5 cr)
The fact that he gets the nod over Jasprit Bumrah in this category speaks volumes of how good Imran Tahir has been this season. With three wickets at an average of 8.66 and economy of 5.20, Tahir has been arguably the standout bowler so far.

ALL-ROUNDER
Krunal Pandya – MI (8.5 cr)
He’s shown some good signs this season but Krunal Pandya has been on the expensive side with his bowling. After a fine innings of 32 from 15 in the opening round of fixtures against Delhi Capitals, he’ll be disappointed he hasn’t done more at the crease.
WICKETKEEPER
MS Dhoni – CSK (9 cr)
Quinton de Kock has been in good form but this feels like another encounter in which CSK will need to call upon MS Dhoni’s ability down the order. The former India skipper is fresh from a match-winning knock of 75* from 46 deliveries against Rajasthan Royals.
CAPTAIN – Rohit Sharma
VICE-CAPTAIN – Imran Tahir
