Shpageeza Cricket League, 2019: Match 11, Band-e-Amir Dragons vs Speen Ghar Tigers: Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update

Match Details:

The 11th match of the Shpageeza Cricket League (SCL) 2019 will be played between Band-e-Amir Dragons and Speen Ghar Tigers at the Alokozay Kabul International Cricket Ground.

The match starts at 2:00 PM local time (03:00 PM IST) (09:30 AM GMT). This game can be viewed on RTA World and RTA Pashto YouTube Channels.

Preview:

The Rashid Khan-led Band-e-Amir Dragons didn’t really get off to the kind of start they’d have wanted to in the SCL 2019. Bowling was a huge let down in the first two games they played this season when they conceded massive scores to the opposition. However, they made the necessary amendments when they played the Amo Sharks in their previous encounter.

The team was clinical in all the three departments which ensured that they registered the first victory. In their next match, the Dragons will square off against the Speen Ghar Tigers. The Tigers will be on the field on back-to-back days which could have been exhaustive. But, there is no scope of complacency whatsoever as they lost their first two matches and will next to soon find the winning ways.
