BPL back in city Friday

After the end of Chattogram phase, the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) T20 will resume tomorrow (Friday) after a day recess with two matches billed for the day at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium at Mirpur in Dhaka.

On the day’s first match, league leader Comilla Victorians will play against Dhaka Dynamites at 2 pm while Chittagong Vikings is scheduled to take on Sylhet Sixers in the day’s second match that begins at 7 pm, reports BSS.

Comilla Victorians is currently placed at second position with 14 points from 10 matches while Dhaka Dynamites stands at fifth position with ten points from ten matches.

On the other hand, Chittagong Vikings is currently placed at third position along with 14 points from 11 matches while Sylhet Sixers, which already left the tournament race, secured eight points from 11 outings.

Defending champions Rangpur Riders, Comilla Victorians and Chittagong Vikings already ensured their spot of playoffs and now the only question is which team will go to the last four as the fourth team – Dhaka Dynamites or Rajshahi Kings.

In that case Dhaka Dynamites have good chance to move to the last four spot because Rajshahi have no match to play and they have secured 12 points from 12 matches.

On the other hand, Dhaka have ten points from ten matches and they have two matches to play against Comilla Victorians and Khulna Titans.

If Dhaka is able to win one out of two matches, then they will move to the playoff by virtue of better run rate as Dhaka have still good run rate compared to Rajshahi.
