Comilla Victorians and Rangpur Riders will lock horns in the 41st game of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2023 on Friday (February 10) at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.
The Victorians, led by Imrul Kayes, lost their first three games and looked in all sorts of trouble. However, they have set a new record in the history of the T20 league after winning eight straight games.
Placed third in the table with 16 points and a net run rate of +0.466, the Victorians need to keep winning. They need to beat the Riders to cement their position in the top two and further their chances of reaching the final.
The Riders, meanwhile, have won six straight games and are second in the standings with 16 points and a net run rate of +0.512. If they lose their last and final league game, they will be in danger of moving out of the top two.
The Riders are coming off a seven-wicket win over Chattogram Challengers. After being asked to chase down 133, the Riders romped home with 24 balls to spare, thanks to Rahmanullah Gurbaz’s 46-run knock.
