BPL 2019, Match 34: Dhaka Dynamites vs Rangpur Riders: Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update

After the first four matches in this edition’s Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), Dhaka Dynamites were looking insurmountable, but somehow they lost three out of their last four matches. To their relief, they are still placed on the second spot on the points table. Their next encounter is scheduled tomorrow against defending champions Rangpur Riders at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram.

The Riders made a tad jittery to start their campaign. However, momentum is with Mashrafe Mortaza’s men as they are on a three-match winning streak and have picked up just when it mattered the most. In fact, they now have the golden opportunity of moving to the top of the points table with 12 points, dethroning Chittagong Vikings, provided they manage to brush aside Shakib Al Hasan’s men.
