BPL 2023

Comilla Victorians vs Khulna Tigers: Who will win? What's your prediction?

The Bangladesh Premier League is at its business end of proceedings as teams at the bottom half of the table face do-or-die situations in order to make the top four, while teams at the top half look to consolidate their positions eyeing the Qualifiers.

With such contrasting realities, Yasir Ali's Khulna Tigers, who are six points off the fourth-placed Rangpur Riders, will take on Comilla Victorians who have found remarkable form after losing their first three matches.

Comilla are one of the most likely teams to take hold of the Qualifier positions and with seven wins in nine matches, they will be favourites going into the contest against Khulna. 
Imrul Kayes's side have been further boosted with the inclusion of Naseem Shah and the return of Mustafizur Rahman have lined up a formidable bowling lineup for Comilla.

On the other end of the table, Yasir-led Khulna have failed to put up complete performances on a consistent basis having to bank on individual performances to take them through. 

Azam Khan, since his maiden BPL ton, hasn't been able to impose himself on the game and with the absence of their best bowler, Wahab Riaz, Khulna would have to play out of their skin to upset Sylhet's run. 

When: 6:30 pm, January 31, Tuesday 
Where: Sylhet international cricket Stadium, Sylhet
Reverse fixture: Comilla Victorians won by four runs 

Probable XI

Khulna Tigers: Tamim Iqbal, Andy Balbirnie, Shai Hope, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Azam Khan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Yasir Ali, Nahidul Islam, Nasum Ahmed, Nahid Rana, Paul van Meekeren
Comilla Victorians: Liton Das (wk), Mohammad Rizwan, Johnson Charles, Khushdil Shah, Imrul Kayes (c), Mosaddek Hossain, Jaker Ali, Tanvir Islam, Mukidul Islam, Naseem Shah, Mustafizur Rahman.
