Match Details:
The 7th match of the Bangabandhu T20 2020 will be played between the Fortune Barishal and the Gazi Group Chattogram at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka.
The match is scheduled to start at 01:30 PM Local Time (01:00 PM IST).
Preview:
Gazi Group Chattogram have arguably been the standout team in the tournament. Having won their first two games with a net run rate of 2.435, Mohammad Mithun and Co are sitting pretty on top of the points table. In the two games, they bowled their opponents out for 88 and 86 respectively. Moreover, in those matches, Chattogram lost only two wickets and won by nine wickets both times.
In their next game against Barishal, the table-toppers will want to stamp their authority yet again. Barishal, on the other hand, started their campaign snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. However, they ceased Minister Group Rajshahi’s winning streak, beating them by six wickets. Another win might even see the Tamim Iqbal-captained unit move to second in the points table.
