The match of Rangpur Riders vs Durdanto Dhakar has just started. Dhaka captain Mosaddek Hossain won the toss and took the fielding decision.
Rangpur team is in a very good rhythm now. Rangpur Riders are now at the top of the table after winning their last three matches. Rangpur's top position in the table will be stronger if they win today's match. On the other hand, the Dhaka team has been defeated in the last four matches. They have lost every match without batting badly. If Rangpur can give a target of 160+ today I think it will be enough for them to win.
Rangpur team has left Brandon King out of the squad today. But Rangpur's overall performance depends a lot on Babar Azam's batting. If Babar Azam does not play well, it will be difficult for Rangpur to provide a big target.
Although Brandon King is a very talented player, Rangpur team does not perform better than King in BPL. So keeping Brandon King out of the squad is the right decision.
Rony Talukder has been added to the squad as a replacement for Brandon King. He is batting very well today. Rangpur has already collected 50 runs from the opening pair without losing any wicket in 6 overs. ROny Talukder was unbeaten with 24 runs off 16 balls and Babar Azam scored 23 runs off 20 balls. If Rangpur's batsmen can maintain this consistency then the team can give 180+ target today.
