Openers are very important in Test matches as they get most of the balls to face as much as they can. Considering this, both Indian openers are important as far as fantasy picks are concerned. You can pick both openers from the English side but Zak Crawley is preferable.

Dhruv Jurel is the best pick from the Wicket-Keeper section. Foakes can be tried in Grand Leagues as well. But never ignore Jurel.

Ravindra Jadeja is a go-to choice in the All-Rounder Section. Ashwin is another pick. You have to keep in mind that the pitches at HPCA support a lot of the seamers.

Premium pacers like Jasprit Bumrah and Jimmy Anderson are your must picks. Mohammed Siraj is an out-of-the-box pick, especially for this match.
