FB vs CK Toss Prediction

As many as 83 domestic T20 games have been played at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong. The teams batting first have won 43 games, while the teams chasing a target have won 40. This does not clearly indicate whether to bat or bowl first on the track. But the skipper who wins the coin flip will be thinking about batting first and putting the runs on the board.

Pitch and Conditions

The wicket at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong is famous for being batting-friendly. The surface provides consistent pace and bounce, and a flat outfield makes for ideal batting conditions. However, the pitch might deteriorate in the game's later stages and become favorable to the spinners. We are likely to get warm and sunny conditions for this contest.

The temperature during the contest will be close to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

FB vs CK Betting Tips

Both these teams currently have a nearly identical record in the competition. After registering a string of wins, Chittagong ran into the league leaders, Rangpur Riders, in their last game. That loss in momentum could end up being crucial. Fortune Barishal has been more consistent with the bat and that could help it win.

Bet on Fortune Barishal to win.
