DATE: Feb 17, 2024
TIME: 13:00 IST / 7:30 GMT
VENUE: Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium – Chittagong, Bangladesh
TOURNAMENT: BPL 2024
Sylhet finished runners-up in the 2023 edition of the tournament. However, this year hasn’t gone their way so far. Their hopes of reaching the playoffs are hanging by a thread as they are currently at No. 6 on the points table with three wins and six losses from nine games. Mohammad Mithun and Co. have won their last two games and would want to extend their winning streak to stay afloat in the competition.
Pitch Report
Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium has provided some excellent batting conditions in the first five matches that have been played at the venue in BPL 2024. The 200-run mark has been breached twice. The average first-innings score has been 187. The first three games were won by teams batting first, while the next two were won comfortably by chasing teams.
Predicted Playing XI
Fortune Barishal:
Tamim Iqbal (c), Ahmed Shehzad, Soumya Sarkar, Mahmudullah, Shoaib Malik, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mohammad Saifuddin, Keshav Maharaj, Khaled Ahmed, Obed McCoy
Sylhet Strikers:
Harry Tector, Samit Patil, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Zakir Hasan, Mohammad Mithun (c/wk), Ryan Burl, Ariful Haque, Benny Howell, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Rejaur Rahman Raja, Sunzamul Islam
Probable Best Batter of the match
In the batting department, Fortune Barishal will place their trust in skipper Tamim’s capabilities. The experienced opening batter might not have been at his free-flowing best but has certainly played some important knocks for his side. He has scored 273 runs at an average of 30.33 and a strike rate of 121.87 in nine innings. He is coming off a swashbuckling 71-run knock off just 45 balls against Durdanto Dhaka in the last game.
Probable Best Bowler of the match
Khaled Ahmed could be the standout bowler in this game. The right-arm pacer, who has played 14 games for Bangladesh, has been in fine form in the tournament. He has picked up ten wickets from six matches at an average of 18.60 and a strike rate of 12.50. His economy rate (8.92) is on the higher side but his team won’t mind it as long as he can keep adding to the wickets column.
