Durdanto Dhaka vs Khulna Tigers Match Analysis

The 33rd Match of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2024 will feature Durdanto Dhaka and Khulna Tigers. Durdanto lost by 27 runs in their most recent game at the Zahur Ahmed Choudhury Stadium in Chattogram, chasing a goal of 187 runs. The two teams last played in Sylhet, where the Khulna Tigers chased down a 131-run goal with 10 wickets in hand.

Teams that bat first have had an advantage at this stadium this year. Dhaka, with a weak batting order and only one promising batter, would be in a difficult position if they were forced to bowl first again.

Khulna Tigers have not fared any better. While they still have an opportunity to finish in the top four, their form has been terrible with both bat and ball. In their maiden encounter at this spot, they allowed 219 runs when bowling first. They were then bowled out with only 141 runs in response.

Durdanto Dhaka vs Khulna Tigers Team Preview & Squads

Durdanto Dhaka

Durdanto Dhaka opened the season with a win over the Comilla Victorians. However, they have lost nine consecutive games and are currently at the bottom of the points standings. Their batting is in serious trouble. Durdanto Dhaka has only had one decent performance in their last five outings, scoring a total of 170 or more while batting first.

Since then, only Alex Ross, though, has consistently scored targets for Dhaka and looked promising. While the other opener varies every game, Saif Hassan and Muhammad Naim are the only two players in the top three who never falter. In the last three innings, Mohammad Naim began the innings with Alex Rosington, Sabbir Hossain, and C de Silva. Furthermore, none of these pairings has been successful for Dhaka.

Before Taskin Ahmed took over as captain, batting all-rounder Mosaddek Hossain didn’t contribute much at the plate. Sean Williams, who has expertise, is ranked number five, but Dhaka needs to give their hitters another opportunity to score. It appears that they are swapping out players after just one match. The bowling offense has a lot of choices. The three bowlers to watch out for are Chaturanga de Silva, Taskin Ahmed, and Shoriful Islam.

Taskin Ahmed (c), Tahjibul Islam (wk), Chaturanga de Silva, Saif Hassan, Mohammad Naim, Alex Ross, SM Meherob, Lahiru Samarakoon, Sabbir Hossain, Arafat Sunny, and Shoriful Islam.

Khulna Tigers

The Khulna Tigers’ last game at this Chattogram location ended with them scoring just 164 for 8 when they batted first. The Tigers were unable to turn things around at-bat despite facing a batting-friendly pitch that has seen some large scores in the first innings of past games. Khulna Tigers were bowled out for 141 runs in their previous match at this same venue, chasing a 220-run mark. Their bowling appears to be in serious trouble as well.

In their most recent game against the Comilla Victorians, the Tigers not only gave up 219 runs but also failed to take advantage of early wickets, allowing the opposition’s middle-order to outscore them despite defending a modest score of 164 runs. About the middle order, the Khulna Tigers must have theirs play well. Promising players include Mahmadul Hasan Joy, Evin Lewis, and captain Anamul Haque.

The inability of Alex Hales to produce significant results at the top worries the Khulna Tigers even more. Lewis and Joy put together a solid partnership for the fourth wicket, but they were out at a critical moment in the dying overs because they were unable to turn it into anything meaningful. For the Khulna Tigers, Wayne Parnell, Luke Wood, and Nahid Rana are the important bowlers who can make big scores.

We believe that neither of these teams should chase down a score in this game because of the success that teams have had batting first at this location thus far as well as the batting difficulties of both teams. For both skippers, it should be obvious who bats first.

On the day of the clash in Chattogram, there will be clear skies and a high of 30 degrees Celsius. In addition to being batting-friendly, this pitch will eventually assist the spinners in the match. This season, there have been two first-inning scores of 180 or more on this pitch. Furthermore, the pursuing club has virtually never been able to win any of the matches this season.
