Pitch report :
One of Bangladesh’s truly competitive venues is the Sylhet Stadium surface, as has long been known.
Sylhet has a history of being a low-scoring ground when it comes to the field. The average first innings total in the BPL 2023 was 164, however recent games have shown that the batsmen may score well here. In every circumstance where the pacers can be quite useful, the pitch usually assists.
A wise captain would opt to bowl first in this situation because we don’t often see teams in Sylhet successfully protect the total. There have been eight BPL 2023 matchups, and the team has won the chase six times overall.
On the field, Sylhet has typically been a low-scoring environment based on their prior performance. However,164 was the first innings average in the BPL 2023. The pitch normally works in favor of the pacers in any situation where they could be particularly important. Teams in Sylhet seldom manage to hold onto the total, hence a cunning captain would choose to bowl first in this scenario. In the eight games that have made up the BPL 2023, the team has won the chase six times overall.
This gives the bowler and the batsman an equally thrilling and nerve-wracking experience. Most games that take place here are low-scoring affairs.
Possible playing XI for both teams :
Sylhet Strikers – Mohammad Mithun (wk), Zakir Hasan, Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Yasir Ali, Dushan Hemantha, Masrafe Mortaza (c), Ben Cutting, Benny Howell, Nazmul Islam, Richard Ngarava, Tanzim Hasan Sakib.
Comilla Victorians – Litton Das (c/wk), Imrul Kayes, Towhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Mohammad Rizwan, Tanvir Islam, Mustafizur Rahaman, Roston Chase, Matthew Forde, Khushdil Shah, Aliss Islam.
