The Khulna Tigers and the Comilla Victorians are set to lock horns in Match 27 of the Bangabandhu BPL 2022 on Friday, February 11. The Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka will host this contest.
The Tigers, led by Mushfiqur Rahim, have blown a tad hot and cold in the ongoing edition of the championship. Having won four out of eight matches, they are placed fourth in the table with a net run rate of 0.177. They lost to Minister Group Dhaka by five wickets in their previous game.
After opting to bat first, the Tigers could only score 129/8 on the back of Sikandar Raza's 50-ball knock of 60. But the Mahmudullah-led Dhaka tracked down the target with four balls left thanks to short, yet useful knocks from their middle order batters.
The Victorians, led by Imrul Kayes, on the other hand, are placed second and are one win away from qualifying for the semis. They will go into their next game on the back of a four-wicket win against the Sylhet Sunrisers, who are languishing at the bottom of the table.
The decision to field first backfired on the Victorians as the Sunrisers scored 169 after Colin Ingram's 89-run knock. Mustafizur Rahman picked up three wickets. The Victorians, however, chased down the target in 19.5 overs after Mahmudul Hasan Joy's 65-run knock.
