The other day at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Dhaka Dynamites tasted their maiden defeat of this edition’s Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) against Rajshahi Kings, led by Mehidy Hasan Miraz. However, Shakib Al Hasan’s men remained at the top of the table courtesy of their stupendous start to the T20 extravaganza. Their next match is against Sylhet Sixers in the latter’s own home ground.

The Sixers won their last match against defending champions Rangpur Riders, but they don’t have much room for error by any means as despite the thumping win last night, David Warner’s team is at the sixth position of the points table. Last time around when these two teams met, the Dynamites won by 32 runs and the table toppers would be keen to get back their winning momentum, winning the encounter.

Pitch and Conditions

The afternoon matches in Sylhet have turned out to be low-scoring affairs thus far. The pitch has tended to deteriorate to a significant extent in the second innings. Hence, it won’t be much of a surprise if the teams opt to bat first after winning the toss. Spinners are again expected to play a massive part. The Sixers will also play their first match in Sylhet this season under the natural lights.

Team Combination

Sylhet Sixers

Liton Das and Sabbir Rahman are expected to open the batting with skipper David Warner to bat at number three. Nicholas Pooran has arguably been their best bet with the bat in hand. All-rounder Afif Hossain and keeper Jaker Ali will come at five and six. The experience of Kapali would need to come to the fore. Taskin, Mahedi and Tanvir are the fast bowlers with Sandeep Lamichhane being the spinner.

Probable XI

Liton Das, Sabbir Rahman, David Warner (C), Nicholas Pooran, Afif Hossain, Jaker Ali (wk), Alok Kapali, Sohail Tanvir, Sandeep Lamichhane, Taskin Ahmed, Mahedi Hasan Rana

Dhaka Dynamites

The power-packed duo of Zazai and Narine are the openers with Rony Talukdar to bat at number three. Shakib remains to be a vital cog. The Dynamites would also look up to Russell and Pollard to step up and deliver. Naim Sheikh and Nurul Hasan are slotted to come next. All-rounder Asif Hasan may get another chance and he would partner Islam, Narine and Shakib in the spin department. Rubel is a fast bowler.

Probable XI

Hazratullah Zazai, Sunil Narine, Rony Talukdar, Shakib Al Hasan (C), Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Naim Sheikh, Nurul Hasan (wk), Rubel Hossain, Asif Hasan, Aliss Islam
