Playing XI Updates

Khulna Titans

The Titans were not up to the mark in their previous match against the Sylhet Sixers but without enough able resources, they should field a similar side.

Yasir Shah didn't complete his full quota of overs and could make way for Zahir Khan, who did play initially for the Titans. Jahurul Islam could come back into the side for Al-Amin as a specialist batsman.

Possible XI: Islam, Siddique, Taylor(WK), Shanto, Mahmadullah (C), Ariful, Wiese, Brathwaithe/Yasir, Taijul, Junaid and Roy.

Comilla Victorians

After their previous victory over the Dhaka Dynamites, Comilla is not expected to make any changes to a fairly settled. Thisara Perera, Liam Dawson and Shahid Afridi have provided the right balance to the side and have made them one of the most fearsome batting units in the competition.

Possible XI: Tamim, Anamul(WK), Shamsur, Imrul(C), Dawson, Afridi, Perera, Saifuddin, Riaz, Mahedi Hasan and Ziaur.

Fantasy Tips and Suggestions

Wicket-keeper

Brendan Taylor has been getting the Titans off to good starts although converting them has been in a problem for them. He should be the ideal candidate for this slot.

Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Junaid Siddiqui and Nazmul Hossain are the ideal set of players to have in your fantasy sides.

Tamim and Imrul are experienced players and have the ability to turn the game on its head in the span of a few overs while Siddiqui has scored in excess of 200 runs standing out as the lone warrior for the Titans.
