Dhaka Dynamites are set to host the in-form Comilla Victorians at Sher-e-Bangla National stadium for another high-voltage fixture of the 2019 Bangladesh Premier League. With the only handful of games left in this season, the race to the playoffs has intensified.

All the teams look to make the most of their situations and qualify for the next round. The BPL Points Table proves top teams are just marginally ahead of each other. Only six points separate Rangpur Riders (first) and Sylhet Sixers (sixth).

Comilla Victorians are comfortably placed at the second spot in the points table with 14 points. They are the most consistent team this season with seven wins in ten games along with three defeats.

The Victorians won their last encounter against the Vikings by 7 wickets (DLS Method) and secured the top spot in the table. They will be aiming to keep their winning momentum going until the end of the tournament.

On the other hand, Dhaka Dynamites are struggling this season to find consistency in their performance. They started the campaign on a promising note and were sitting at the top of the ladder halfway through the season.

But Shakib and his troops have failed to capitalize. They now find themselves reeling at fifth position in the points table. They have managed to win 5 games while losing as many in their 10 outings.

The Dynamites lost their last league game against Chittagong Vikings by 11 runs. They will be hoping to perform better in the remaining games in order to stay alive in the tournament.

The Dynamites and Victorians are colliding for the second time in this season. The previous encounter was won by Comilla by a narrow margin of 7 runs. Dhaka must be ready to avenge their last defeat and bring their campaign back on track.
