Chattogram Challengers vs Dhaka Platoon fantasy sports team prediction
Dhaka Platoon started the Bangabandhu BPL with a nine-wicket defeat to
table-toppers Rajshahi Royals. However, Mashrafe Mortaza and Co didn’t lose
their cool and rolled over the Cumilla Warriors and Sylhet Thunder by 20 and 24
runs respectively fantasy cricket
leagues. The wins got their net run rate in the positives. They will
next play the Chattogram Challengers at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium.
The Dhaka franchise knows the art of making the BPL playoffs and they will
be looking to strengthen their position in the top two. The Challengers,
captained by Mahmudullah, won’t be an easy proposition though fantasy games. They have beaten the
Sylhet Thunder and Rangpur Rangers without dropping much sweat. Though the
Challengers lost to the Khulna Tigers, they haven’t lost any momentum.
Pitch and Conditions
The pitch in Chattogram doesn’t have much for the bowlers. The batters can
play their shots on the up. A fairly high-scoring match seems to be in store in
the second of Wednesday’s doubleheader. Getting wickets with the new ball will
be crucial. The skies will stay clear during the course of the match with the
temperature around 22 degrees Celsius. The humidity will mostly be in the 60s.
Team Combination
Chattogram Challengers
The Challengers batting has played a major role in their victories thus
far. Imrul Kayes and Chadwick Walton have in excess of 100 runs and both have
scored at a strike-rate around the 140 mark. Avishka Fernando hasn’t flattered
to deceive and has chipped in with pretty useful knocks.
Chattogram’s bowling has looked a tad indifferent at times. Rubel has been
amongst the wickets but needs to take care of the economy rate. Mahmudullah has
done his bit with the ball. Nasir Hossain hasn’t gotten a wicket but has been
frugal. Kesrick Williams will also play a very important part.
Probable XI
Chadwick Walton, Lendl Simmons, Avishka Fernando, Imrul Kayes, Mahmudullah
(c), Nasum Ahmed, Nurul Hasan (wk), Rubel Hossain, Muktar Ali, Kesrick
Williams, Mehedi Hasan Rana
Dhaka Platoon
Tamim Iqbal was admitted to the hospital on Monday due to viral fever and
it’s not known whether or not he will be fit for the next game. If he misses
out, it can be a huge blow for the Platoon as he is their top run-scorer with
110 runs. Mominul Haque may get a chance provided Tamim doesn’t play.
The onus will be on Anamul Haque, who has had scores of 38 and 62, at the
top of the order. The likes of Thisara Perera and Laurie Evans have to deliver
with the bat as well. Perera has been excellent with the ball though, having
picked five wickets. He has gotten good support from Riaz and Mortaza.
Probable XI
Tamim Iqbal/Mominul Haque, Anamul Haque (wk), Laurie Evans, Jaker Ali,
Thisara Perera, Wahab Riaz, Mahedi Hasan, Shadab Khan, Mashrafe Mortaza (C),
Ariful Haque, Hasan Mahmud
Probable Top Performers
Chadwick Walton– Chattogram Challengers | Laurie Evans– Dhaka Platoon.
