Analysis
India Maharajas camp has faced two defeats in three games but their players have put some good performances. Naman Ojha has scored runs at the top of the order while Mohammad Kaif has chipped in at crucial junctures. Yusuf Pathan too has had his contributions. However, the team has not performed collectively. On the other hand, World Giants have put on brilliant performances in the two games they have played. Kevin O'Brien has scored the most runs so far for the team while Morne Morkel has claimed the most wickets. So, including these players in the fantasy team can fetch good points.
