Khulna Tigers Team News & Playing 11

KHT Team News

Khulna Tigers stuck with an unchanged line-up again last time out and, in fine form, they are likely to go into the play-offs with that same team.

KHT Key Players

Mushfiqur Rahim: Held an end for Najmul Hossain Shanto in a 56-run partnership last time out, as his own 18* from ten balls lifted him to 449 runs for the tournament.

Rilee Rossouw: Overshadowed by Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mehidy Hasan Miraz in recent matches, but the South African still passed 450 runs for the tournament as he hit two sixes on his way to 23.

Robbie Frylinck: Took 2-35 last time out and has now taken ten wickets in his last four games to reiterate his worth with the ball.

KHT Team Form

Khulna Tigers won their last three matches to storm up the table and claim top spot. After back-to-back wins against Cumilla Warriors, they finished the job with a fine win against Dhaka Platoon too. Robbie Frylinck’s bowling form continued with 2-35 but Dhaka still set them 206 to win. Najmul Hossain Shanto’s 115* from 57 balls ensured they made light work of it though – chasing it down for the loss of just two wickets in 18.1 overs.

Khulna Tigers Predicted Playing 11

Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Rilee Rossouw, Shamsur Rahman, Mushfiqur Rahim (c, wk), Najibullah Zadran, Robbie Frylinck, Aminul Islam, Shahidul Islam, Mohammad Amir, Shafiul Islam

KLT vs RAR Dream11 Prediction

Wicket-keeper(s)

Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das are both in fine form and well worth selecting, given both have amassed more than 600 points so far this season.
 
Batsmen

Shoaib Malik and Rilee Rossouw are also in excellent form and hard to ignore at ten and 9.5 credits apiece. Afif Hossain is nine credits, but Najmul Hossain Shanto’s superb innings last time out could give him the edge – and he is only 8.5 credits.

All-rounders

Andre Russell is 10.5 credits and the stand-out all-rounder but at that price it is hard to justify selecting him. Ravi Bopara is better value for the Royals at nine credits, which is the same price as Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who has come into good form at the top of the order for Khulna Tigers. Robbie Frylinck is in top bowling form, meanwhile, and he costs just 8.5 credits.

Bowlers

Mohammad Irfan and Shahidul Islam are both nine credits apiece, while Aminul Islam is eight credits. Given the cost of the batsmen, there is little choice for the bowlers but those three cover a wider base and come in within the credit limit.

Captain/vice-captain

Robbie Frylinck’s excellent bowling form makes him hard to ignore, particularly as he is also capable of fireworks down the order if called upon. He has amassed 692 points so far this season too prove that point. For vice-captain, both of the selected wicket-keepers are in excellent form and either of them – Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das – would be a good choice.

Rajshahi Royals Team News & Playing 11

RAR Team News

Rajshahi Royals changed the balance of their team last time out, by handing Liton Das the gloves and bringing in an extra bowler. The change worked too, and it could be the same team that beat Dhaka that takes on Khulna Tigers.

RAR Key Players

Shoaib Malik: Led the Rajshahi batting with some excellent form in the group stage, including his unbeaten 43 from 25 balls last time out that wrapped up a comfortable win. He has 352 runs in this year’s tournament and also claimed 1-11 with the ball last time out.
 
Mohammad Irfan: Took his eight wicket of the tournament last time out, leading the bowling with his pace and bounce as he also bowled 13 dot balls.

Liton Das: Smashed 75 runs from 48 balls at the top of the order to follow up his half-century in the previous game and otherwise good form through the group stage.

RAR Team Form

Rajshahi Royals lost to Chattogram Challengers in the first of their back-to-back matches – Liton Das hit 56 out of 166/8 but the Royals lost by seven wickets in 18.3 overs.

They hit back well, however. After restricting the Challengers to 155/5, Das (75) and Shoaib Malik (43*) helped them to an eight-wicket win, completed in just 17.4 overs.

Rajshahi Royals Predicted Playing 11

Liton Das (wk), Afif Hossain, Shoaib Malik, Ravi Bopara, Andre Russell (c), Alok Kapali, Farhad Reza, Mohammad Irfan, Abu Jayed, Kamrul Islam Rabbi, Taijul Islam
