Chattogram Royals have enjoyed an excellent run in this tournament, collecting four victories while conceding only two defeats, which has pushed them to the top of the standings. The side has looked well settled across matches and will be keen to stay inside the leading pair by adding another result here.
In the batting unit, Adam Rossington has set the tone, compiling 241 runs from five outings at a strike rate of 142. An outstanding average of 80.33 this season underlines how effectively he controls the innings and keeps the scoreboard moving.
Mohammad Naim brings calm and order to the lineup and follows closely on the batting list with 190 runs from six appearances at a strike rate of 138. Hasan Nawaz complements him nicely, mixing intent with restraint to ensure the run flow does not stall.
Shoriful Islam heads the bowling attack after collecting 11 wickets while conceding 7.28 per over. Mahedi Hasan and Tanvir Islam strengthen the spin options, combining for 14 dismissals and adding flexibility during the middle overs.

Rajshahi Warriors have hit early momentum this season, securing four victories alongside one setback to settle into third on the ladder. Their tally reads eight points, level with the top two sides, though a lower net run rate has kept them just behind in third position. Another win would lift them straight back into the leading pair again.
Najmul Hossain Shanto has carried the batting effort, amassing 204 runs from five outings while striking at 145. Veteran Mushfiqur Rahim has complemented him effectively, chipping in with 131 runs and ensuring the scoring pace holds firm at 113.
Muhammad Waseem adds a second attacking option at the top, underlined by a powerful 60 off 35 against Noakhali Express in the previous match.
Further down the list, Tanzid Hasan and Yasir Ali have provided useful contributions, sharing responsibility cleanly across the lineup.
In the bowling ranks, Ripon Mondol has impressed the most, claiming eight wickets from three games at an economy of 6.91. Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Binura Fernando have combined for another eight scalps. The Warriors can also turn to spinner Hasan Murad for added depth after all-rounder Mohammad Nawaz departed. Options remain flexible across phases as the schedule tightens.
Najmul Hossain Shanto Total Runs Over 20.5 1.75
Najmul Hossain Shanto has scores of 41, 24, 37, 101 in the last four matches played in the BPL. He is in fine form this season and has racked up 204 runs in 5 matches, averaging 51. At Sylhet he has a pretty good record (531 runs in 24 matches, averaging 26.55). Considering his current form, we back Shanto to score over 20 runs in today's match.

The wicket at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium tends to be dry and slow, giving spin bowlers control from the start of play. Getting runs early can be a challenge for batters as the surface turns and holds, restricting their ability to play their shots. Fast bowlers may extract some sideways movement when they start their spells, but spinners will control most of this contest.
Conditions in Sylhet will be hazy and cool, and there's no threat of rain.
First-innings scores at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium are often seen around the 165-run mark. However, recent matches have mostly seen scores ranging between 140 and 160. A score of around 160 tends to put significant pressure on the chasing side.
