FBA vs KHT Match Toss Prediction
Given that the Shere Bangla National Stadium has hosted multiple matches towards the end of the group stage, the surface has undoubtedly become uneven. This will encourage the winning captain to bat first as dew will play a factor in the evening hours.
FBA vs KHT, Shere Bangla National Stadium Pitch Report
This match will be played under the lights on a pleasant evening, which will make the bowlers find it difficult to get a grip in the second innings. A target of 170 should be a formidable total to defend for either of the teams. While the pitch will help the batsman, it definitely has something in store for all sorts of bowlers as well.

Fortune Barishal Team News & Playing 11
FBA Team News
Fazle Mahmud will be expected to give company to Anamul Haque at the top of the batting order as the middle order has often been called into action much earlier than expected. The bowling attack of this unit has wealth of experience with Shakib Al Hasan leading them very well.
FBA Key Players
- Shakib Al Hasan - The vastly experienced Bangladeshi all-around will be expected to finish off the regular season in style for his side. Having already had a strike rate of over 175, Shakib will be expected to give a resounding end to FBA innings. Iftikhar Ahmed and Mohammad Wasim too have left the competition and will not take part in the competition.
- Karim Janat - The Afghan right-arm medium bowler has been a hit for the Fortune Barishal unit in the BPL 2023. The 22-year-old has already picked 10 wickets in 11 games and will be expected to be among the wicket-takers in Match 42 as well.
- Mohammad Wasim - Another crucial bowler for FBA is Wasim, who has picked 9 wickets in just 7 games for them.

Khulna Tigers Team News & Playing 11
KHT Team News
Khulna Tigers’ highest scorer Tamim Iqbal and leading wicket-taker Wahab Riaz are expected to sit out in this contest as well, which means Paul van Meekeren and Mohammad Saifuddin will be leading the bowling attack with the new ball. Whereas Nahidul Islam will be their No. 1 bowler heading into Match 42. Even Azam Khan is likely to miss the action.
KHT Key Players
- Shai Hope - The West Indies International will be once again expected to give a good start to the Khulna Tigers in Tamim Iqbal’s absence.
- Nasum Ahmed - Given that this slow-arm left-unorthodox bowler has been quite economical for KT, the team will be banking on Nasum to hold off FBA’s batting lineup in the middle overs.
- Nahidul Islam - Having taken 11 wickets in 11 games, this right-arm off-break spinner will be expected to take wickets at regular intervals during the middle overs.
