Match Preview

Gazi Group Chattogram, without a shred of a doubt, were the table-toppers in the league stage of the tournament, winning seven out of eight games. Barring their seven-run defeat to Beximco Dhaka, Mohammad Mithun and Co have been clinical.

As far as Gemcon Khulna, their opponent in Qualifier 1, is concerned, Chattogram beat them by nine wickets and three wickets respectively. The fact that they had a net run rate of 1.157 shows the level of dominance they have shown.

Khulna, on the other hand, got through with four wins from eight matches. Mahmudullah’s men may not be high on confidence, especially after losing their last two league matches. It goes without saying the Khulna need to pull a rabbit out of the hat turn over the in-form Chattogram team.
