Durdanto Dhaka, who have yet to be in their pinkest of forms recently, will hope they can come to terms with the challenges set to them by Sylhet Strikers in their game in the Bangladesh Premier League on Friday. However, the home team, Sylhet, had it worse than Dhaka.
Sylhet languish at the bottom of the standings, and one does not quite foresee them coming out of it anytime soon. They will have to make sure that they execute all their plans against Dhaka to pick up the two points on offer.
Key Players
Harry Tector (Sylhet): Harry Tector has to provide the X-factor that Sylhet supporters can come and watch. He needs to be the player his team can bank upon in times of need. The Irishman has proven himself to be a dependable character. His team will want more out of him.
Alex Ross (Dhaka): Australian import Alex Ross has had a challenging time in the BPL. He adds a lot of heft to the Dhaka batting order with his might in the lower middle order. For Dhaka to win this game against Sylhet, Ross must perform to the best of his potential.
Match Prediction
It is quite challenging to pick a winner among two of the lowest-ranked sides of the BPL this season. Although Sylhet have an advantage because they are playing in familiar conditions, Dhaka already has a win under their belt. We expect Dhaka to win this game comfortably.
Chattogram Challengers vs Comilla Victorians 02.02.2024 Prediction
Both teams tend to perform above and beyond their potential. Chattogram will feel they have players who can wreak havoc on the Comilla side, whereas the latter will feel that experience will be on their side.
Chattogram is currently ranked second in the league table, whereas Comilla is perched fourth in the same standings. Chattogram will want to outdo their opponents in this game and maintain their lead at the top half of the table.
Key Players
Curtis Campher (Chattogram): Irishman Curtis Campher is a player the Challengers can occasionally depend on. Campher is known to hit the ball a long way when he has the bat in hand and picks up a few handy wickets whenever he has the ball.
Towhid Hridoy (Comilla): Young Bangladeshi talent Towhid Hridoy is one of the players to watch out for in the Comilla side. Hridoy has the balance of knowing which balls to hit and which to defend. He can also rotate the strike exceptionally well. He will hold the key for Comilla in this game.
Match Prediction
Chattogram Challengers are the favourites to win this game, and we expect them to do so quite comfortably. Chattogram have a significant advantage over their opponents, and it will be pretty harsh for Comilla to come to terms with that. One feels that Comilla will need help to do so.
