Dhaka Capital vs Fortune Barishal Predictions - Mayers to get Barishal back on winning track

This will be the first meeting between the two teams.

Dhaka picked up their first win of the season (after six defeats in a row) when they beat Durbar Rajshahi by 149 runs.

Tanzid Hasan (108 off 64 balls) and Litton Das (125* off 55) piled on the runs against Durbar Rajshahi. The pair posted 241 for the first wicket on the way to a 20-over score of 254/1.

Abu Jayed (2/15, econ 5.00) and Mukidul Islam (2/18) reduced Rajshahi to 34/5 in the seventh over. They were bowled out for 105 in the 16th over as Dhaka claimed their first win of the season. 

Dhaka will hope their batting revival will continue for the rest of the season. They will need at least two wins from their last three matches if they hope to have a chance to make the playoffs.

After winning two matches on the bounce, Barishal lost a thriller against the Riders off the last ball of the match.

After Tamim Iqbal (40) and Najmul Hossain Shanto (41) added 81 for the 1st wicket, Kyle Mayers (61* off 29) powered Barishal to 197/5 off their 20 overs.

Jahandad Khan (2/48) was the most successful Barishal bowler, but they couldn’t prevent the Riders snatching a dramatic, last-ball victory by three wickets.

Fortune Barishal are in good form and are likely to bounce back from their defeat to effectively knock Dhaka out of the tournament.
