Fortune Barishal will face Chittagong Kings in the 42nd match of Bangladesh Premier League 2024-25 on 16 January 2025, at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka. This article will cover match details, pitch report, playing XI, player stats, Dream11 predictions and fantasy cricket tips for the FBA vs CHK match.

Match Preview

Fortune Barishal have had an outstanding tournament, winning 9 out of 11 matches. They are coming into this contest with strong momentum, having won their last 6 games in a row. Sitting comfortably at the top of the points table with 18 points, they have already secured their playoff spot and will look to continue their winning run before the knockout stage begins.

Chittagong Kings have also performed well, winning 7 out of 11 matches. With 14 points, they are currently placed 3rd in the standings and have already qualified for the playoffs. While this match may seem like a dead rubber for both teams, Chittagong Kings still have something to fight for.

A win here would push them to 2nd place, replacing Rangpur Riders, who have 16 points but a lower net run rate. Finishing in the top two would give them the advantage of playing in the qualifier round, where a loss wouldn’t immediately eliminate them from the tournament.

With Fortune Barishal aiming to extend their dominance and Chittagong Kings fighting for a better playoff position, this match promises to be exciting. Both teams could also use this opportunity to experiment with their playing XI and finalize their strategies for the knockout stage

Pitch Report

The pitch at this venue is typically slow and assists spinners as the game progresses. Early on, batters might find some ease in scoring, but as the ball gets softer, stroke-making becomes difficult. Pacers who rely on variations and cutters can be effective, especially in the latter stages of the innings. Spinners, however, dominate proceedings, extracting turn and bounce from the surface. With an average first-innings score of around 152 runs, teams winning the toss generally opt to bowl first, capitalizing on any moisture early on before spinners take control later in the match.
