Chattogram Challengers are favorites to win

Both sides will feel confident, although top of the league Chattogram will feel this match is theirs for the taking, given their three victories over three different sides to date.

The team has been in a haywire state with its continuous three victories in the past matches but with a descending score of just 3 victories over Cumilla Warriors out of 8 matches. The bowling segment of the team is one of a kind with top performers like Mehedi Hasan Rana leading he pack followed by Muktar Ali, Nasir Hossain and Kesrick Williams.
The batting unit however has a passive performance chart with Lendl Simmons, Mahmudullah, Imrul Kayes, Chadwick Walton amassing the runs for the team in unity. However, there is still room for the batsmen to improve their individual performances and maintain a better stand for the team.
The Chattogram Challengers haven’t had many standout performers in terms of their batting order, but they have been able to rely on strong overall batting performances as a collective. Lendl Simmons has score 127 runs over three appearances, Chadwick Walton has scored 104 runs over four appearances and Imrul Kayes has scored 102 runs over four appearances with the likes of Avishka Fernando and Mahmudullah chipping in with runs too.
The Challengers have had a dangerous bowl attack to call upon. Mehedi Hasan Rana has been the pick of their bowlers this BPL, having taken 8 wickets over 3 performances. Muktar Ali, Nasir Hossain and Kesrick Williams have all taken 5 wickets too to make up, what is, a dangerous bowling line-up.
The Chattogram Challengers are in fine form having won their last three BPL 2019 matches. They were missing a few key players in their first match loss to Khulna Tigers, a match which they lost by 8 wickets with 37 balls remaining. They then went on to beat the Rangpur Rangers by 6 wickets with 10 balls remaining, Sylhet Thunder by 4 wickets with 12 balls remaining and, most recently, Dhaka Platoon, by 16 runs. They will be full of confidence with their performances and league position.

Soumya Sarkar, Kusal Perera and Sabbir Rahman will form the top-order for the Warriors, while their middle-order boasts the likes of Dawid Malan and Dasun Shanaka, the latter also captaining the side. The Warriors dangermen in terms of their bowlers are Al-Amin Hossain and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, two players they will rely upon to lead the attack on the opposition’s batsmen.
The stand out names amongst the batsmen will be Kusal Perera, Soumya Sarkar and Dawid Malan with Kusal Perera possessing a particularly impressive T20 record. Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Abu Hider Rony and Al-Amin Hossain will form the brunt of the Warriors bowling threat with Mujeeb Ur Rahman posing perhaps the biggest threat thanks to a very impressive T20 record.
Cumila Warriors find themselves 4th in the BPL table after 3 games. They’ve beaten bottom of the table Rangpur Rangers twice, a team who many predicted to do well this BPL 2019 season. They can take a lot of confidence from those victories. However, they did lose to Dhaka Platoon by 20 runs. It will be interesting to see how they perform against Chattogram Challengers.
