BPL Cricket Match Prediction 2024 | Match 19 | Fortune Barishal vs Khulna Tigers – Will the KHT see their fifth consecutive victory in the tournament? | Feb 03
The 2024 Bangladesh Premier League’s match 19 between Fortune Barishal and Khulna Tigers, who both entered the encounter having won their last match, appears to be a barnburner. However, the Tigers are the early leaders in the tournament, leading Barishal by four points.
This is the first of two games on Saturday that mark the conclusion of the tournament’s Phase 2, after which all of the teams will switch to Phase 3 in Dhaka, where the league table will undoubtedly begin to take more shape. However, Sylhet Strikers are now leading the standings and could lag significantly by the end of this stage.
Fortune Barishal vs Khulna Tigers Team Preview & Squads
Fortune Barishal
After defeating Sylhet Strikers three times in a row in the tournament, Tamim Iqbal’s team will enter this match with renewed confidence. Nevertheless, given that every team has defeated the Strikers thus far, Fortune Barishal would be well advised to avoid getting too ahead of themselves following that triumph!
In the victory over the Strikers, Mohammad Imran showed off his skills with the ball, scoring 4/29, while Khaled Ahmed and Mehidy Hasan Miraz each claimed two wickets. Barishal will need to score a lot of runs in this game, but they do have Mahmudullah and Ahmed Shehzad in form after both players scored half-centuries in the previous encounter.

The Khulna Tigers are the team that everyone wants to beat but hasn’t been able to do it yet, with victories by 10 wickets, 28 runs, 8 wickets, and 4 wickets thus far! They have quality all across their team, and in their convincing victory over Durdanto Dhaka, five of their seven bowlers were deployed in their bowling assault, taking at least one wicket. They also have the power and skilled batters with the bat. Anamul Haque maintained his impressive tournament with 58 not out, however, Evin Lewis was forced off the field due to an injury and is anticipated to be fit for this match.
Even this early in the tournament, the Tigers have a strong team and are projecting themselves as future champions.

Six of the eight Sylhet encounters played before Friday’s games had been won by the side batting first. Based on past results, we predict that Khulna Tigers and Fortune Barishal will both opt to bat first if they win the toss before this match.
Saturday afternoon in Sylhet is predicted to be approximately 23 degrees with humidity levels exceeding 60%, so there is no chance of the rain stopping. Over the Sylhet period, we have noticed a modest increase in pitch speed and a noticeable increase in bounce. Pace bowlers will believe they have a better chance because the par score is probably going to be close to 165.
