The Sylhet Strikers and Dhaka Dominators will lock horns in Match No.13 of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2023 on Monday, January 16. The Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram will host the contest.

The Strikers, led by former national skipper Mashrafe Mortaza, have arguably been the standout team in the tournament. Having won all four of their matches, they are placed at the top of the points table with eight points and a net run rate of +2.072, the best among the participating teams.

They will go into the game after beating the Dominators by 62 runs in their previous game at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka on January 10. It was also the first time in the championship that Mashrafe’s men won a match while defending a score.

After being put in to bat first, Towhid Hridoy’s 84-run knock coming o 46 balls helped the Strikers post a daunting target of 202 for the Dominators to chase down. In reply, Dhaka finished with 139 in 19.3 overs. Imad Wasim, Mashrafe and Mohammad Amir picked up two wickets apiece for Dhaka.

The Dominators, led by Nasir Hossain, started their campaign with a six-wicket win over the Khulna Tigers. However, back-to-back losses have pushed them down to fifth in the table. Their net run rate of -1.205 isn’t among the best either.
