Match Preview for  Fantasy:
So, here we are! After six weeks of pulsating, accelerating, sometimes gobsmacking and on occasions controversial state of affairs in fantasy cricket, we are finally down to the grand finale of the Bangabandhu BPL where Khulna Tigers and Rajashahi Royals will battle it out for the rights to be called the champions of the 2019-20 edition.
Khulna Tigers booked their place into the summit clash after registering a 27-run win over Rajshahi Royals- the same opponent that they’ll face on Friday. The win was set-up by a whirlwind knock of 78 by Nazmul Hossain Shanto, one that helped them to post a total of 3-158.

But the final nail in the coffin was nailed by Mohammad Amir’s 6-17, one that proceeded to run through the Royals, even as Shoaib Malik [80] waged a lone battle at the other hand.

The Royals’ struggles with the bat continued in the second qualifier. Barring Irfan Sukkur [45], none of the top-order batsmen could post any substantial score during their run-chase of 165 and it took an insane inning from Andre Russell, who racked up a whirlwind 22-ball 54 to take them past the finishing line in fantasy games.

Top Picks:

Khulna Tigers- 115 and 78- These have been Nazmul Hossain Shanto’s scores in the last two games. How he and Tigers will hope he does an encore on the grand finale. Apart from Shanto, Rilee Rossow and Mushfiqur Rahim will be the key.
Mohammad Amir ran through the Royals during his spell of 6-17. He will once again spearhead the bowling unit while Robbie Frylinck and Mehidy Hasan could prove to be the X-factors.
Rajshahi Royals-  The reason behind the batting struggles of Rajshahi Royals in the past two games has been the misfiring opening unit of Liton Das and Afif Hossain, and they’ll hope that the duo can step-up on the big day. Shoaib Malik and Andre Russell will be the absolute key to their fortunes with both bat and ball.

Captain and Vice-Captain Selection:

Captain – Shoaib Malik, Andre Russell, Mohammad Amir
Vice-Captain –  Mushfiqur Rahim, Rilee Rossow, Liton Das,
