FBA vs KHT T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, BPL 2023
Match 33 of the 2022-23 Bangladesh Premier League sees Fortune Barishal take on Khulna Tigers on Friday afternoon at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. Barishal are in second place, four points behind Sylhet Strikers. The Tigers are in sixth place, level on points with bottom of the table Chattogram Challengers. Read on as we preview this night match. The game begins at 14:00 local time in Dhaka.
Although Barishal have stumbled with some of their results over the last week, they are still in a very strong position in the table. They will fancy their chances of beating Khulna Tigers in this clash.
Khulna Tigers posted a total of 210-2 in their last game but still could not win the game. Without Wahab Riaz they look far weaker with the ball and this will be a very tough match.

Fortune Barishal Team News & Playing 11
FBA Team News
All-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz has not been selected for recent games and we do not anticipate that he will come back into the team for this match. There were a few under-performing players in the last game but we expect Shakib to lead an unchanged XI.
FBA Key Players
- Anamul Haque - The keeper-batter has scored 120 runs, double his previous tally from the first seven matches, over the last two games whilst taking two catches. He is in excellent form.
- Shakib Al Hasan - Although he has made successive single figure scores with the bat, he impressed with the ball against Dhaka and took 2-18.
- Iftikhar Ahmed - The experienced middle-order batter is a reliable presence in the side for some quick late runs irrespective of the pitch conditions.
FBA Team Form
Fortune Barishal have now lost two of their last three matches in the competition and were well beaten by Dhaka Dominators on Tuesday.

Khulna Tigers Team News & Playing 11
KHT Team News
Andy Balbirnie and Nahid Rana were left out of the team ahead of Tuesday’s high scoring thriller against Comilla Victorians, a game which saw Shai Hope take over the captaincy from Yasir Ali. It was an excellent batting display but it would be a surprise if Amad Butt keeps his place after conceding 52 runs from three overs.
KHT Key Players
- Shai Hope - The West Indian took on the responsibility of the leadership ahead of Match 32 and responded with an unbeaten 91 not out from 55 balls.
- Tamim Iqbal - The experienced opener took his tally of runs for the tournament past 300 with 95 runs from 61 balls against Comilla Victorians. He is always the wicket which the opposing bowlers want to take.
- Nasum Ahmed - With Wahab Riaz back in Pakistan, the bowling attack looked far weaker on Tuesday. Islam impressed with figures of 1-19 and should get some turn on this wicket.
KHT Team Form
Khulna Tigers have lost four matches in a row in the BPL 2023 but will not lose many matches if they score 210 again.
Khulna Tigers Predicted Playing 11
Tamim Iqbal, Shai Hope (c), Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Azam Khan (wk), Yasir Ali, Mark Deyal, Amad Butt, Mohammad Saifuddin, Nahidul Islam, Nasum Ahmed, Shafiqul Islam

Who will win Fortune Barishal vs Khulna Tigers T20 Match?
Between them, these teams have won only one of the last six matches they have played and we expect the more reliable bowling attack of Fortune Barishal to give them the edge in this game.
🏆 Fortune Barishal vs Khulna Tigers Prediction
Khulna Tigers will still be wondering how they managed to lose after scoring 210-2 against the Victorians in their last match. If they can carry their batting confidence into this game then this could be a very close contest. However, Khulna’s bowlers have not been good enough in recent matches and we expect the Barishal batters to take advantage. Our prediction is for a Fortune Barishal victory.
