Fortune Barishal, led by explosive all-rounder Tamim Iqbal, have a powerful top order capable of imposing targets or chasing down big totals. The likes of Soumya Sarkar and Shoaib Malik in their middle order provide stability as well as the ability to accelerate when needed. Mohammad Amir, Taijul Islam, and Khaled Ahmed are among the veteran pacers and excellent spinners who can put pressure on the opposition. Meanwhile, Rangpur Riders have a well-balanced team, with strong batting and bowling units. Their batting lineup features Rony Talukdar, Azmatullah Omarzai, and Shakib Al Hasan. They also have a strong bowling attack in the form of Abu Hider Rony, Wanindu Hasaranga, and Matheesha Pathirana to exploit any weaknesses in the opposition’s batting lineup.
