Hazratullah Zazai, Kieron Pollard and Rony Talukdar have all had good hits in this year's BPL and the team's batting is going to depend heavily on them. Zazai is third in the list of top run-scorers of the season with 140 runs which includes a couple of half-centuries. Talukdar has a strike-rate of 173.33 and is coming off a 34-ball 58 against Sylhet Sixers. Shakib Al Hasan is another key man in this line-up. The skipper has taken the most wickets for the Dynamites - seven from four games - and he is likely to finish with the best bowling figures against Rajshahi Kings. Rubel Hossain was the pick of the bowlers last time with figures of 3-22. The pacer took a three-wicket haul in the reverse fixture and he could cause problems for the Kings once again.

Their top-order failed to click in the last game against Khulna Titans and they will need the likes of Mominul Haque, Mehidy Hasan and Soumya Sarkar to step up and deliver strong performances with the bat against the Dhaka Dynamites. Mehidy, surprisingly, has scored the most runs for his side this BPL and he even hit a half-century against Khulna Titans. Sarkar has plenty of T20I experience under his belt and the team will expect him to make a notable contribution. With the ball, the Rajshahi Kings will bank on Arafat Sunny, Isuru Udana and Mustafizur Rahman to deliver the goods. Udana is currently their best bowler with six wickets in four matches and the Sri Lankan seamer will be crucial in the powerplay. Sunny took a couple of wickets in the reverse encounter and the slow nature of the Sylhet pitch will make him even more threatening.

Dhaka Dynamites are heavy favorites amongst the bookmakers to win this 17th match of the Bangladesh Premier League 2019. They are being offered at odds of 1.26 on Betfair. Rajshahi Kings are huge underdogs for this game at odds of 3.75 on Betfair.
Dhaka Dynamites are the most successful team in the tournament and they are certainly playing like one this year as well. They have won all their four league matches and are sitting comfortably at the top of the points table. Rajshahi Kings, on the other hand, find themselves in the bottom half of the standings with three defeats in five games. They now have two losses in their last three matches which means there is going to be considerable pressure on them. However, the Kings played their last game at Sylhet and so they will have the advantage of knowing the conditions beforehand as compared to the Dynamites who will be playing at this ground for the first time this season. But still, the latter are carrying a lot of momentum with them which is one of the main reasons why we are backing them to keep their unbeaten run intact.
Final Verdict: Back Dhaka Dynamites to beat Rajshahi Kings at 1.26 with Betfair.
