This should be one of the safer bets. Across both first overs when Fortune Barishal and Khulna Tigers played each other this year, there were nine dot balls out of the 12 balls. Two of those dot balls included wickets.
This bet is well within reason when comparing to the previous Fortune Barishal score in the powerplay against Khulna. The scores in the powerplays for both teams were well below the 50-run mark. Fortune Barishal scored 30 for three and Khulna Tigers scored 31 for one in their first six overs.
The previous match between the teams showcased that there will only be small margins separating the teams. As the table starts to become more congested, teams will start to scrap for every and any points on offer. Barishal lead Khulna on the current standings. This is a particularly important match for the Tigers as they aim to not get left behind in the race for the knockout stage. Fortune Barishal have the squad depth to make it a double over their opponents this year.
Fortune Barishal have won the latest two encounters against Khulna Tigers. Overall, in the last five matches the home team have won three matches to the visitors’ two wins.
Fortune Barishal and Khulna Tigers lock horns at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Mirpur for this BPL match on Monday, 27 January 2025. The FanCode app will provide live-streaming in India.
Opening the batting is Towhid Hridoy. The young talent promises aggression and consistency. The youngster hit 36 runs versus the Tigers in Chattogram. His fellow opener is the seasoned Tamim Iqbal, also leading the team as captain. Iqbal brings unmatched experience and stability to the batting lineup.
Dawid Malan has a solid technique and adaptability to any situation in limited-overs cricket. The middle order is anchored by the reliable Mushfiqur Rahim. The wicketkeeper-batter is closing in on 6000 T20 runs.
The dynamic all-round contributions of Mahmudullah and Mohammad Nabi could change the game. Mahmudullah hit a half-century in his previous innings against the Tigers. Afghan Nabi has more than 700 BPL runs. Faheem Ashraf is another cricketer who adds depth to any lineup with his seam-bowling all-round skills.
On the bowling front, leg-spinner Rishad Hossain and left-arm spinner Tanvir Islam promise variety and wicket-taking threats on a spinning surface. Pacers Ripon Mondol and Jahandad Khan add bite to the attack with their fiery pace. Khan bagged a double when he played against Khulna previously.
Hossain and Mondol have more than 60 and more than 20 T20 wickets respectively.
Mohammad Naim will be key at the top as a stable batter alongside veteran Imrul Kayes. He top-scored with 77 runs against Fortune Barishal previously. The opening pair adds composure and leadership to the batting lineup.
Skipper Mehidy Hasan Miraz will be the backbone of the team in all three departments of batting, bowling and fielding. The team will rely on his astute tactical mind. He made a handy 33 runs in his last match against Barishal.
Alex Ross, known as "The Sweepologist," brings flair and versatility to the middle order. His signature sweepshot could put the spinners under pressure and create a headache for the opposition captain.
Young Afif Hossain adds a dynamic presence and power-hitting ability in the middle overs. He has more than 3500 T20 career runs. Wicketkeeper Mahidul Islam Ankon is a dependable gloveman and lower order finisher with the bat. Australia's William Bosisto lengthens this powerful batting lineup.
In the bowling department, Aamer Jamal and Ziaur Rahman bring pace and experience. Salman Irshad adds further firepower with his sharp pace. The economical Nasum Ahmed with his left-arm spin will be vital in restricting opposition and will be of the key wicket-taking options on this subcontinental surface.
Hasan Miraz and Irshad took three and two wickets against the opposition in Chattogram.
Fortune Barishal won their reverse fixture against the Tigers by batting first. As the pitches get slower after a heap of cricket on them, batting first could be the best bet.
The Mirpur pitch may feel slow and sluggish in nature after already being used for numerous games this tournament. The batters will need to adapt to the timing of their strokes. The pitch will start to deteriorate in the hot and dry conditions to give assistance to the spinners. Fortune Barishal defended 167 for nine in 20 overs against Khulna Tigers at Chattogram.
You can expect a hot and sunny day on matchday. The heat will feel slightly humid too. There is no chance of rain.
The Khulna Tigers will be desperately seeking an off day from the powerful Barishal side. Two points for a win will be much needed to move up the rankings and seal their spot in the next round. Fortune Barishal won by a small margin last time. They would want a complete performance again to nail down their position on the log.
Fortune Barishal is also in excellent form and has a stronger batting lineup.
Bet on Fortune Barishal to win this match.
