Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

Sylhet Thunder is almost out of the playoffs race as they lost seven out of the eight games played so far. They need to win all four upcoming matches and let the luck favour them to reach the playoffs. Rangpur Rangers have also struggled a lot in the BPL 19-20 and won just three out of the eight matches they played. Winning all their remaining games is the only way to stay alive on the playoffs race for the Rangers.

Both the sides boast of some fierce T20 players and it is baffling to see them struggling this season. Having said that, the possible must-win situation might bring the best out of them and we might get to witness a cracker of a contest on Friday.

It is expected to be a cloudy day on Friday in Sylhet. Rain is likely to play spoilsport in the first game of the day.
