Fortune Barishal take on Rangpur Riders in match No. 6 of the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka, on Thursday, January 2.
Defending champions Fortune Barishal got their campaign off to a fine start as they made light work of a 198-run target to beat Durbar Rajshahi by four wickets with 11 balls to spare in the curtain-raiser. Mahmudullah and Faheem Ashraf scored quickfire half-centuries while Kyle Mayers (2/13) bowled an excellent spell with the new ball.
Meanwhile, Rangpur Riders have had a fantastic start to the season, having won both their matches so far. They defeated Dhaka Capital by 40 runs to begin their campaign and went on to register a 34-run win against Sylhet Strikers in their second game. Wicketkeeper-batter Nurul Hasan has led the team commendably and made some handy contributions with the bat as well.

Probable Top Performers from FBA vs RAN
Probable Best Batter: Towhid Hridoy
The second-highest run-scorer in BPL 2024, Towhid Hridoy, scored a fluent 32 off 23 balls in Barishal's first match against Durbar Rajshahi. They lost two wickets in the first couple of overs but Hridoy didn't let Barishal get too far behind in their run-chase. The right-handed batter will want to play another impactful knock on Thursday.
Probable Best Bowler: Nahid Rana
Nahid Rana wreaked havoc with his pace and bounce in Rangpur's last game against Sylhet. Barishal batters didn't have a great time facing another tall right-arm seamer in Taskin Ahmed in their first game. Rana is taller and bowls faster than Taskin. While there is a shortage of experience, expect Nurul to guide the 22-year-old along his way.
