Ben Stokes: The all-rounder is back to his best in IPL 2020 with both bat and ball. Stokes should be in your fantasy side as he is a game-changer in all departments. 

Jos Buttler: Buttler is currently been wasted batting in the middle order and if they hope to advance further in the competition, Buttler needs to bat from the first over. 

Jofra Archer: The fiery fast bowler has been sensational for his franchise and will be again their most important bowler. 

Eoin Morgan: After a disappointing last match, skipper Eoin Morgan needs to inspire his side. In the middle order, Morgan has the game to change the course of the match in a matter of few overs.
