However, Sanjay Manjrekar has picked five players from both the Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals to watch out for within the game of Saturday’s doubleheader. He figures the surface at Abu Dhabi will suit fast bowlers and accepts the pair of Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje will have a great outing.
As such, Rabada and Nortje picked up five wickets between them within the past match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The last mentioned was named the Player of the Match for his spell of 2/12 in four overs.
The South African pacers were among the primary three picks for Sanjay Manjrekar together with captain Rishabh Pant.

“From Delhi, I have got Rishabh Pant there. Kagiso Rabada, Nortje, two fast bowlers because the pitches in the UAE, and especially this match in Abu Dhabi will suit the fast bowlers,” Sanjay Manjrekar said
“Prithvi Shaw showed some spark in that first game. I expect him to be a real sort of an impact player at the top. And of course, Shikhar Dhawan, who is batting more beautifully than I have ever seen him bat.” he added
Sanjay Manjrekar feels that Tabraiz Shamsi may be the best entertainer for the Rajasthan Royals in case they choose him on their side. The South African joined the Royals squad sometime recently the second leg of IPL 2021 but did not get a game in their first outing.
“I am going to pick Mahipal Lomror. I am hoping he gets another opportunity because there is something about the batter, not so much about the left-arm spinner. But the batter Mahipal Lomror played a good inning in the last match,” Sanjay Manjrekar signed off.
