Match preview
Durbar Rajshahi take on Sylhet Strikers in the 36th match of the 2024-25 Bangladesh Premier League, at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.
Rajshahi come in with mixed recent form, having won two of their last five. Taskin Ahmed leads a probable XI that features Mohammad Haris, Sabbir Hossain, Anamul Haque, Ryan Burl, Yasir Ali and Akbar Ali in the batting order, with Shafiul Islam and Sunzamul Islam among the bowlers.
Sylhet have lost all five of their recent matches. Their line-up includes George Munsey, Rony Talukdar, Zakir Hasan, Jaker Ali and Samiullah Shinwari, with Reece Topley in the attack. They will need a quick change of fortune to turn their season around.
The venue, which opened in 2006 and holds about 25,000, has seen 36 matches won batting first and 39 won bowling first, so the toss is unlikely to settle things. On recent results our preview picks Durbar Rajshahi.
