Fortune Barishal vs Rangpur Riders Preview

Rangpur Riders who finished the league stage as the table toppers had the chance to make it to the final in the first attempt. They failed to get their tactics right on the match day as they were outsmarted by Comilla Victorians.

However, they do have one more chance to rekindle the spark in the Qualifier 2 and a compelling performance might just do the trick for them. Fortune Barishal are coming into the clash with blistering form as they have piled up 7 wins in the last nine games.

As a result, we can expect one heck of a healthy contest between the duo. Fortune Barishal got the better of Rangpur Riders in the first leg and were tantalizingly close to winning the second leg.

Nevertheless, Rangpur Riders somehow found a way to come out on top in the battle as they won the game by 1 wicket. Rangpur Riders who were given a reality check in the Qualifier 1 will enter the upcoming clash as the favourites.

However, it won't be an easy game for sure as Fortune Barishal have the potential to change the complexion of the game. They knocked Chattogram Challengers out of the competition in the Eliminator clash and will come with a truckload of confidence.
