CAV vs FBA Match Preview
The Fortune Barishal team is going into this game after a close win over the Comilla Victorians yesterday. The Fortune Barishal team has succeeded in winning four out of their last five games. Comilla Victorians batted first in this contest to score 140 runs for losing eight wickets from their quota of twenty overs. The Fortune Barishal team successfully chased this target by holding six wickets in hand. It was a close win, though, as they reached the target in the last over of the contest.
Taijul Islam led the Barishal bowling effort in this game. He picked up three wickets from his three overs, giving away twenty runs. He not only picked up the vital wickets but also bowled reasonably economically. Obed McCoy also picked up two wickets like Mohammad Saifuddin. Although Fortune Barishal lost an early wicket, their skipper Tamim Iqbal scored a solid 66 from 48 balls with three big sixes and six fours. He was involved in a good partnership for the second wicket with Kyle Mayers.
After a string of losses, the Fortune Barishal team has succeeded in putting together a couple of wins in their last two efforts. They beat Khulna Tigers and Durdanto Dhaka in their previous two matches. Chattogram played their last game in the competition against Khulna Tigers. Batting first, Chattogram put together a big total on the board. They smashed 192 runs for the loss of four wickets from their quota of twenty overs. The Khulna Tigers, in their reply, were bowled out for 127 runs in 19.5 overs.
The Chattogram score was developed around the efforts of their opening batter, Tanzid Hasan. He hammered the opposition bowling attack to a pulp and scored a 65-ball 116. This hundred contained eight sixes and as many fours in it. The wicketkeeper-batter Tom Bruce supported this effort well with 36 from 23 balls. The Chattogram bowling attack was right on the money as they restricted the Chattogram batters to a small total and raised a big win. Shuvagata Hom was the pick of the bowlers, picking up three wickets for 25 runs from four overs.

Dream11 Prediction
Both these teams did equally well in the competition. You can pretty much expect a close game in this contest. We reckon the Chattogram Challengers will have more momentum on their side and, as a result, will have an edge in this contest. This is also because the Chattogram team won both the contests played between the two teams in the league stages of the competition. There is not much in it, though.
