Bet NowKhulna Tigers would be under pressure as they take on the Comilla Victorians in the 27th game of the Bangladesh Premier League 2022. The Tigers went down against Minister Group Dhaka in their previous game. The Comilla Victorians defeated the Sylhet Sunrisers in the last game convincingly and shall have their confidence high.
Comilla Victorians have already made it to the playoffs and the side wouldn’t be under pressure and unlike the Khulna Tigers who have to win the next game. The Victorians have their batsmen in good form. Tigers are no pushover and they have good players on the side which will make this game interesting.
The 5-wicket loss in the last game against Minister Group Dhaka has complicated matters for Mushfiqur Rahim’s side. Their batsmen played poorly in the last game and need to make a strong comeback here. They are up against a very strong side and Rahim would like his players to deliver their best in this game and book a berth for the playoffs.
Andre Fletcher and Soumya Sarkar have scored runs in the tournament and the side would need a good start from them here. In the middle order, Rahim would need to lead from the front and add runs with Jaker Ali and Yasir Ali. Thisara Perera, Sikandar Raza, and Mahedi Hasan are good hitters of the ball and the side would need a strong show from them.
Nabil Samad has done well with the ball and he would aim to pick early wickets with Ruyel Miah in this game. Mahedi Hasan, Perara, and Khaled Ahmed would have to keep the scoring under check in the middle overs. The side would also need good spells from Raza in this game.

Imrul Kayes’ side comes here with a 4-wicket win against the Sylhet Sunrisers. This win has guaranteed them a berth in the next round of the competition. Their batting line-up looks in good form and the side would look to get back to the top of the points table with a win in this game.
The side would expect a good start from Liton Das and Mahmudul Hasan Joy as both these players have scored runs in the tournament. Moeen Ali is in good form and along with Faf du Plessis, he strengthens the middle order for the team. Kayes, Sunil Narine, and Ariful Haque will need to use the long handle towards the end of the innings.
Their bowling attack took a beating in the last game and the side would need Nahidul Islam and Abu Hider to bowl tight lines in the game. Mustafizur Rahman bowled a good spell and the side would have high expectations from him in this game. With Narine, Moeen Ali, and Tanvir Islam in the side, their bowling attack has good depth.

There would be a slight cloud cover over Dhaka on February 11. The wicket has been excellent to bat on and we expect to see a high-scoring contest in this game. Bowlers are likely to have a tough time on this track and the side batting first would need a minimum of 180 runs to defend it.
Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka balances it out between the batsmen and bowlers. The flat surface and small size of the ground allow batsmen to score runs at this venue. We have seen fast bowlers find little assistance from the surface. But spinners have done well here as the wicket does help them turn the ball.
Ten games have been played at this venue and only thrice has a side win the game batting first. The wicket is great to bat on and setting up scores here is a challenge. Past results are likely to play in the minds of the two captains and the side winning the toss would opt to bowl first in this game.
Khulna Tigers come into this game with a heavy loss. Their batting line-up failed miserably in the last game and they would have to make a quick recovery in this must-win game. Comilla Victorians are through to the next round and they have a good balance in their batting and bowling line-ups. This would put the side nose ahead in the game.
