DR vs CK Toss Prediction

We have seen 83 domestic T20 contests held at Chittagong's Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium. More teams have won matches while batting first. The last game played here was no different. The wicket becomes helpful to the spinners in the second half when it has worn out a little. So, the captain might wish to bat first here after winning the coin flip.

Pitch and Conditions

The Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Cricket Stadium has a batting-friendly track. It provides a hard and flat surface for the players and is suitable for big scores. Batters are more likely to enjoy these conditions, with consistent pace and bounce, making it ideal for stroke play. We are expecting clear weather for this game. The temperature during the game will be close to 78 degrees Fahrenheit. There is no chance of getting showers during the contest.

DR vs CK Betting Tips

Durbar Rajshahi is up against a more potent batting and bowling unit of Chittagong Kings. The Kings have done slightly better this year in the BPL league. Some good things are going for Rajshahi, but the Kings will be the favorites to win this contest and move up in the points table.

Bet on the Chittagong Kings to win.
