Sylhet Titans have had a mixed BPL so far, with three wins and four defeats leaving them third in the standings. They arrive after a loss to Chattogram Royals and will want to respond. Parvez Hossain Emon has carried the batting with 204 runs in seven matches at a strike rate of 131, and Afif Hossain has added 147 at 135. Ethan Brookes or Azmatullah Omarzai may need a score of 40 or more to tilt the game.
Nasum Ahmed leads the attack with eight wickets in seven games at an economy of six, and Khaled Ahmed and Mohammad Amir have shared 11 between them. The bowling has been solid, but the team will need support from a deep batting order if the top order stumbles.
Dhaka Capitals have been less consistent, winning two of five and hovering near the bottom. Nasir Hossain has scored 131 runs in four innings at a strike rate above 136, Shamim Hossain has made 113 at 155 and Sabbir Rahman 65 at 144, while the recent form of Rahmanullah Gurbaz at the top gives hope of quick starts. Imad Wasim has been the best bowler with five wickets at an economy below five, Salman Mirza and Mohammad Saifuddin have seven between them, and Taskin Ahmed can break partnerships at any moment.
