Sylhet Titans suffered a disappointing start to their campaign, falling to Rajshahi Warriors by eight wickets in their first outing. The batting unit delivered a solid effort, though improvements will be needed from the bowlers moving forward.
Parvez Hossain Emon delivered the standout performance, finishing unbeaten on 65 from 33 balls and guiding the Titans to a strong total of 190-5. Rony Talukdar added 41 from 34, while Afif Hossain supported the effort with 33 from 19.
Talukdar was one of the most reliable run scorers in last season’s competition, finishing with 286 runs across 11 innings at close to 26 per knock while striking at 132.40. He will again carry responsibility alongside Hazratullah Zazai and Saim Ayub, both of whom bring stability through the order.
Captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz plays a central role after scoring 355 runs in 14 matches last season at a strike rate of 133, while also contributing 13 wickets.
Afif Hossain can influence the final overs from the lower middle order, adding quick runs as seen in the opener.
Mohammad Amir leads the bowling options after producing strong displays this year across several T20 leagues. Ruyel Miah offers reliable support, while Ethan Brookes and Nasum Ahmed add depth to the attack.

A difficult opening greeted Noakhali Express on their Bangladesh Premier League debut, as Chattogram Royals handed them a loss in match one. There is barely any breathing space, and the focus now shifts to producing a far-improved effort here.
Maaz Sadaqat shapes the plans at the top. The opener brings a dependable T20 record, carrying an average of 42 alongside five fifties, and has the range to push past 30 runs regularly.
Further support is expected from Habibur Rahman Sohan and Sabbir Hossain, a pairing capable of adding useful runs while laying early foundations for the innings.
Shykat Ali and Jaker Ali operate through the middle stretch, recognised for measured shot selection and calm decision-making that can settle the innings during tricky periods.
Hasan Mahmud teams up with Mehedi Hasan Rana as the primary pace choices, with Mahmud setting the tone. His experience and control carry weight. Added to that, Sadaqat can trouble batters on this surface, something he displayed recently, while Zahir Khan’s four overs carry value through timely wickets that can alter momentum there.

The pitch at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium typically plays dry and slow, which gives spinners an advantage from ball one. Batters often have trouble finding their timing early, with the surface offering enough grip and turn to make choosing the right shots genuinely important. Quick bowlers may find something in the morning session through swing or seam movement, but spin is predicted to take charge for most of this game.
Conditions in Sylhet will be hazy and cool, and play should go ahead without any weather-related stoppages.

The average first innings score at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium is 165. Most scores, though, tend to hover around 170-180 runs here. For this game, we reckon a total of around 180+ will put pressure on the chasing side.
Batting second is usually the better option in Sylhet, so expect the toss-winning side to field first here.
Both Sylhet Titans and Noakhali Express went down in their tournament openers and will be looking to turn things around as soon as possible. Sylhet can draw confidence from how their batting unit performed, and if their bowling attack improves this time around, they should be competitive in this fixture. Noakhali, however, struggled across all departments and need a far superior performance if they have any hope of victory. The early indicators suggest Sylhet are better positioned to win this encounter.
Sylhet Titans are our picks for the winners of this match.
