The Rangpur Riders are poised to secure a playoff spot if they continue their performance against the Dhaka Capitals. The Riders have historically dominated the Capitals, winning all previous encounters. Key players like Towhid Hridoy and Khushdil Shah have been consistent in their contributions, bolstering the Riders' chances. On the other hand, the Capitals are struggling, needing to win their remaining matches and relying on Riders' losses to keep their hopes alive. Despite the Capitals' tumultuous season, players like Nasir Hossain offer some glimmers of hope.

Rangpur Riders vs Dhaka Capitals Predictions


The Riders are well-placed to make the playoffs and will have eyes on a possible second place finish to the group stages. The Capitals have to win both of their remaining two matches and hope the Riders lose both of theirs. The momentum is in favour of the Riders, but neither side is in great form. 

  • Rangpur Riders’ Towhid Hridoy hit six sixes in his 56-ball 97* against the Warriors.
  • Rangpur Riders’ Khushdil Shah has scored 38*, 22, 24, 44 & 30 in his last 5 innings.
  • Dhaka Capitals’ Usman Khan has scored 21, 21 & 41 in his last 5 innings.
  • Dhaka Capitals’ Nasir Hossain hit 16 boundaries in his 50-ball 90*.

Head-to-Head


The Riders have won all three of their previous matches against the Capitals.

Rangpur Riders Form


The Riders’ three-match winning streak ended when they lost three matches on the bounce.

Towhid Hridoy has been the Riders’ best batter, although Dawid Malan has scored four runs less but at an average of 40.60. Khushdil Shah has scored 38*, 22, 24, 44 & 30 in his last five knocks.

Mustafizur Rahman is joint second on the wickets list with 13 at an economy rate of 7.06. He picked up 3/18 against Noakhali and 2/32 against Chattogram. Faheem Ashraf (joint 6th with 11 wickets) has returned figures of 3/18 (vs Sylhet), 3/43 (vs  Rajshahi) and 5/17 (vs Chattogram) in his last five matches.

Dhaka Capitals Form


After getting off to a decent start, the Capitals’ season has fallen apart, losing four of their last five matches.

Nasir Hossain is his side’s top batter, hitting 22 boundaries in his 158 runs this season. Second-placed batter Shamim Hossain scored 81* in the second match but his next highest score in five innings was 29.

Imad Wasim is Dhaka’s best bowler, taking seven wickets at an economy rate of 5.73. Ziaur Rahman is also on seven wickets, with figures of 2/35 and 3/35 in his last five starts.

Rangpur Riders vs Dhaka Capitals Team News


Rangpur Riders’ Pakistan all-rounder Fahim Ashraf is confident his team can still make an impression in the League this season: “Rangpur is a team that has the ability to turn things around and we are still in good shape. If we can win a match, we will gain momentum. I believe we will make the playoffs and go on to reach the final. My effort is always to contribute to the team. I want to perform at my best and I am keen to give my best. The rest is up to the fans to decide whether I am a lucky charm for Rangpur or not,” said Ashraf.

Rangpur Riders (possible XI): Towhid Hridoy, Kyle Mayers, Litton Das, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, Nurul Hasan, Mahmudullah, Nayeem Hasan, Sufiyan Muqeem, Mustafizur Rahman, Nahid Rana.

Dhaka Capitals (possible XI): Usman Khan, Abdullah Al Mamun, Saif Hassan, Mohammad Mithun, Nasir Hossain, Imad Wasim, Shamim Hossain, Sabbir Rahman, Tofael Ahmed, Ziaur Rahman, Taijul Islam.
