Bangabandhu BPL 2022, Chattogram Challengers vs Khulna Tigers: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details
Chattogram Challengers and Khulna Tigers are set to lock horns in the sixth match of the Bangabandhu BPL 2022 on Monday, January 24, at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.
The Challengers, led by Mehidy Hasan Miraz, started their campaign with a four-wicket loss against Shakib Al Hasan's Fortune Barishal. However, a 30-run win over Minister Group Dhaka on Saturday, January 22, should have given them a lot of confidence.
After being sent in to bat, the Challengers scored 161 runs, thanks to Will Jacks' 24-ball 41, Sabbir Rahman's 17-ball 29 and Benny Howell's 19-ball 37. Shoriful Islam then picked up a four-wicket haul to help the Challengers bowl out Dhaka for 131 in 19.5 overs.
Meanwhile, the Tigers, captained by Mushfiqur Rahim, are sitting pretty atop the points table with a decent net run rate of 0.639. They won their opening game against Mahmudullah's Minister Group Dhaka by five wickets.
Kamrul Islam Rabbi picked up a three-wicket haul, but Dhaka amassed a massive total of 183-6. The Tigers started their run chase on a decent note, with Andre Fletcher and Rony Talukdar scoring 45 and 61 respectively. Thisara Perera (36) then took the Tigers home.
