After a day off, the Khulna Titans will be back in action to face the Comilla Victorians. In their last game, the Titans were defeated by the Sylhet Sixers by a massive 58-run margin. Thus, it resulted in them slumping down to the bottom of the points table. The side has only got two wins in ten games and is already out of the tournament.

However, the Victorians are pretty much alive and have got a very good chance of making it through. Given that they defeated a strong team like the Dhaka Dynamites in their previous match, it should give them a lot of confidence. The team has won five games out of eight till now. A win against the Khulna Titans will take them straight up to the second spot on the points table.

Pitch and Conditions

As observed in the last four games that were played in Chattogram, the pitch is an absolute belter to bat on. Once the batsman is settled in, he can aim for big scores as there is literally nothing on offer for the bowlers. The weather prediction is partly cloudy and there aren’t any chances of rain.

Team Combinations

Khulna Titans

The Khulna Titans do not have many options to ponder over. They are expected to continue with the same eleven that they fielded in the last game. Brendan Taylor, Hossain Shanto and Mahmudullah have got massive roles to play with the bat. It could be one player between Yasir Shah and Zahir Khan who will be picked in the eleven.

Predicted XI: Brendan Taylor (wk), Junaid Siddique, Al-Amin, Hossain Shanto, Mahmudullah (c), Anamul Haque, David Wiese, Yasir Shah/Zahir Khan, Taijul Islam, Junaid Khan, Subashis Roy.

Comilla Victorians

The Comilla Victorians have got great depth in their batting order. Right till the number eleven player, everyone is more than capable of scoring a few quick runs. Also, the skipper Imrul Kayes has got plenty of options with the ball as there are a lot of all-rounders in the side. Their eleven looks very well rounded.

Predicted XI: Tamim Iqbal, Anamul Haque (wk), Shamsur Rahman, Ziaur Rahman, Imrul Kayes (c), Liam Dawson, Thisara Perera, Shahid Afridi, Mohammad Saifuddin, Wahab Riaz, Mahedi Hasan.
