Bet NowHello everyone! BPL action gets more and more exciting as we enter the last phase of the league games. The top four teams have just 2 points difference and three teams are separated by just the run rate. Chittagong sit at the top of the table but they lost their last match against Rangpur Riders by a massive margin of 72 runs. This might be a big wake up call for the team ahead of the knockout stages. Captain Mushfiqur Rahim has been their batting stalwart scoring runs consistently at a good pace. Mohammed Shahzad, Cameron Delport and Yasir Ali has played by vital knocks and been amongst the runs. Their bowling was erratic in the last match allowing Rillee Rossouw and Alex Hales to score tons and rack up their team total to 239 runs. Robbie Frylinck, Abu Jayed and Khaled Ahmed are their main pace bowlers in the squad. Spinner Sunzamul Islam has been very expensive with his economy rate and is not having a good tournament so far.
Rajshahi Kings have lost two matches in a row and are looking for a win to stop their losing streak. They are just a win away from making it to the top four in the points table. Skipper Mehdi Hasan has altered the batting line up every match and their batting looks unsettled. Laurie Evans is their batting superstar who has already scored a century in this league. Ryan Ten Doeschate and Chris Jonker have played some good knocks but are not consistent. Fazle Mahmud scored a fighting fifty last match despite their team`s dismal batting efforts. Mustafizur Rahman has not yet performed to his potential with the ball. Kamrul Islam and Arafat Sunny has fared better and have taken wickets at regular intervals. Skipper Mehdi Hasan and Seekuge Prasanna must stem the run flow in the middle overs to restrict the opposition batsmen.
Key Players:
Mohammed Shahzad – Shahzad is a aggressive batsmen who takes away the game in a matter of minutes. The more time he spends in the crease, more chances of your team`s winning.
