Comilla Victorians vs Barisal Bulls Prediction

Skipper Mushfiqur Rahim and Shahriar Nafees scored twin fifties in the first game against Dhaka Dynamites and rescued their team from what had been a shaky start. Though he could not take his side to a match-winning score, Rahim stood up to the expectations and delivered a good batting performance. He will be their key man again on Friday and we predict him to score the most runs for the Bulls. However, the team will also need contributions from Shamsur Rahman and Dawid Malan at the top.

Like the Victorians, Barisal Bulls too were lackluster when it came to bowling. Al-Amin Hossain and Thisara Perera were very expensive and failed to pick up a wicket. These two are the most experienced of the lot and they will need to raise their game if they are to challenge the Victorians. Al-Amin Hossain is a very talented Bangladeshi seamer and we expect him to give a spirited performance in this match.

Comilla Victorians vs Barisal Bulls: Our Prediction

Both teams will head into this match with defeats in their previous matches and therefore neither will be carrying the winning momentum with them. One plus point that the Barisal Bulls will have on their side is that they have a lot more experience of playing in the BPL as they have played in all the three previous editions.

Comilla Victorians are the dark horse of the tournament. They played their first season last year and went on to win the title by beating the Bulls in the finals. They also beat the Bulls in both their group games which means that the Victorians will be coming into this match with a 100% win record over them.

The fact that Comilla Victorians have beaten the Barisal Bulls in all their previous encounters so far will surely give the former an edge and we therefore predict them to win this match and extend their winning run over the Bulls.
