Comilla Victorians (COV) will lock horns with the Fortune Barishal (FBA) in the 8th match of the Bangladesh Premier League 2024 at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on January 23. Comilla Victorians have played only one game so far, which they lost and are placed fifth in the table. Fortune Barishal, on the other hand, are placed fourth, having won and lost a game each so far.

Comilla Victorians squared off against Durdanto Dhaka in their last match, where Durdanto Dhaka won the toss and elected to bowl. Victorians started slow and had lost their first wicket at 23 runs, but a brilliant second wicket stand of 107 runs paved the way for them. Thanks to the innings from Kayes and Hridoy, they were able to score 143 runs. Dhaka, in return, was brilliant right from the first ball as the opening stand of 101 runs made the chase easy for them. They were easily able to chase the total thereon and won the game by five wickets.

Fortune Barishal squared off against Khulna Tigers in their last match, where Khulna Tigers won the toss and elected to bowl. Barishal did not start well with the bat, having lost the first wicket at 14. They had better partnerships for the wickets to follow and also scored at a much better pace. They had posted a strong total of 187 runs on the board. Tigers, in return, were simply sensational right from the start as every batter who came out to bat smashed around bowlers for fun. They easily chased down the total and won the game by eight wickets with two overs to spare.

Pitch Report

The track at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur is quite equally helpful to batters as well as bowlers. With good seam and swing movement off the deck, pacers are expected to do well here. It would be a good contest between the bat and the ball here. Teams prefer to chase the total after winning the toss, with the average first innings score being 152.

Player Picks

C

Mushfiqur Rahim FBA | WK

Rahim, with all his experience to his aid, has been one of the best batters of the tournament so far. Additionally, he keeps the wickets as well making him the best choice for leading your side.

8.5
C

Imrul Kayes COV | BAT

Imrul single-handedly carried the batting weight of his team with his performance in the last game. He top-scored with 66 runs to his name off 56 balls.

7
C

Khaled Ahmed FBA | BOWL

Khaled has been one of the best bowlers of the tournament so far with as many as four scalps to his name. Although he has been a bit expensive but has been scalping wickets regularly.

8.5

Tamim Iqbal FBA | BAT

Tamim has looked in good touch with the bat so far in the two games he has played. Batting at a strike rate of 131.58, he has slammed 75 runs in these matches.

9

Litton Das COV | WK

Litton could not perform well in the last match but with the caliber of batter that he is. He would be expected to do a better job in the coming matches. He can fetch you hefty points with his keeping skills as well.

6

Mohammed Imran FBA | BOWL

Imran has been bowling in the right areas which has helped him fetch wickets regularly. He has picked up three wickets with an economy of 9.57 in these two games.

8.5

Mehidy Hasan Miraz FBA | ALL

Miraz is an absolute match-winner for his team with the bat as well as the ball. He has scalped away two wickets while scoring 20 runs with the bat too.

8.5

Mahmudullah FBA | ALL

Mahmudullah is a brilliant finisher of the game and has been doing his job well. Striking at a fantastic rate of 153.33, he has smashed 46 runs in two matches where he remained unbeaten once.

7

Tanvir Islam COV | BOWL

Tanvir did not just scalp wickets in the last innings but stopped the run-flow as well. He picked up two wickets giving just 27 runs in his four overs.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

5

Rakibul Hasan

FBA | BOWL

Rakibul has failed to contribute anything to the team so far either with the bat or the ball. He should not be placed in your team.

8

Mahidul Islam Ankon

COV | WK

Ankon should not find a place in your fantasy team based on his performances in the recent matches.
