The Bangladesh Premier League is gearing up for another exciting showdown as Dhaka Capitals take on Sylhet Strikers in the 16th match on January 10. The iconic Sylhet International Stadium is all set to host the clash live from 6:30 PM.

Dhaka Capitals

As Bangladeshi cricket fans are experiencing another thrilling edition of the Bangladesh Premier League, Dhaka Capitals are struggling in the ongoing edition. After playing four matches, they are still hunting for their first win. Against the Rangpur Riders, they suffered a humiliating win. Despite a solid 18-run knock from Jason Roy and a vital 29-run contribution from Tanzid Hasan, the rest of the batting lineup faltered, unable to tackle the opposition's bowling attack.

While defending a low total of 111 runs, the Capitals bowlers failed to dominate the opponent batters. After Mustafizur Rahman secured the early blood, they needed to wait long for the second scalp. Alauddin Babu and Mosaddek Hossain secured 1 wicket each. But that effort fell short and they faced a 7-wicket defeat.

Sylhet Strikers

On the flip side, Sylhet Strikers are standing on the same point as they are still winless in the ongoing edition. In their previous encounter against the Fortune Barishal, they faced another heartbreaking defeat. While batting first, they struggled again. Zakir Hasan and George Munsey added 25 runs and 28 runs. Captain Ariful Haque made a crucial contribution of 36 runs and put a total of 125 runs on board.

While defending the total, the bowlers failed to take control of the opponents. Rahkeem Cornwall secured the first breakthrough after dismissing skipper Tamim Iqbal on a duck. Tanzim Hasan Sakib secured 2 scalps but the other bowlers failed to make a mark. With that, they faced a 7-wicket defeat.

How Will The Sylhet International Cricket Stadium Pitch Will Behave?

The Sylhet International Cricket Stadium features a pitch that provides good pace and bounce, which benefits fast bowlers at the start. However, as the ball loses its shine, pacers find it challenging, allowing batters to take control. This often results in low-scoring matches. While spinners may find some help during the middle overs, substantial turn is not expected. Overall, it's primarily a surface that favors batters.
