Khulna Tigers Team Form

After a poor start to their campaign in the 2023 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League, the Khulna Tigers have regained some momentum. They have two wins in their bag in the last three games, but those are their only two wins in their last five games.

Comilla Victorians vs Khulna Tigers Head to Head

Their head-to-head numbers between Comilla Victorians and Khulna Tigers make for intriguing reading. In the last five games between these two sides, the Victorians have the slight advantage, winning three of them.

Comilla Victorians vs Khulna Tigers Betting Odds

CV to score more than 44 in powerplay @ 1.85 (Melbet)

In their three consecutive wins, one common factor stands out for the Comilla Victorians: their consistency in the opening overs. Across all three games, the Victorians have put at least 40 runs in the powerplay, losing only two wickets in total. Given those kinds of numbers, this is a sure-shot bet to take advantage of.

Comilla Victorians vs Khulna Tigers Best Batters

Litton Das to be CV’s best batter (Melbet)

Some batsmen just have the gift to make batting look that bit more elegant; Litton Das is one of them. On his day, there are few in world cricket who can match his flair and poise at the crease, and the seeming ease with which he goes about his business. Long considered the only true successor to Mushfiqur Rahim, the 28-year-old has produced the goods in recent times for the Comilla Victorians’: 162 runs in his last five matches at an average of 32.4.

Tamim Iqbal to be KT’s best batter (Melbet)

Tamim Iqbal has been a mainstay at the top of the order for Bangladesh for more than a decade. Regarded among the hardest hitters of the cricket ball in the country, the southpaw has come through for his struggling team at this year’s tournament. In his last five games for the Khulna Tigers, the 33-year-old has scored 175 runs at an average of 43.75.

Comilla Victorians vs Khulna Tigers Best Bowlers

Tanvir Islam to be CV’s best bowler (Melbet)

Slow left-arm spinners have had a good time at the 2023 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League—even under the lights. The same is true for Tanvir Islam. Together with Khushdil Shah, the 26-year-old has led the line for the Comilla Victorians, with eight wickets in his last five outings at an average of 13.13. Those numbers alone should inspire you enough to take the bet head on.

Wahab Riaz to be KT’s best bowler (Melbet)

Simply put, the Khulna Tigers’ bowling unit has suffered so far in the games at this tournament so far. But they have the international experience of Wahab Riaz in the squad precisely for such a time as this. The 37-year-old veteran has 391 T20 wickets to his name at an economy rate less than 7.5. And he has stepped up to lead the Tigers’ attack, being the leading wicket-taker in the tournament with 12 wickets from six games.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Comilla Victorians

We agree with Melbet’s analysis of this game. So, we are calling the game for the Comilla Victorians too. Comilla Victorians are on a winning streak and have won their last four consecutive games. On the other hand, the Khulna Tigers bottled their chances of moving up the points table by losing to the bottom-placed Dhaka Dominators in their previous game. Hence, based on our analysis of the squads, Comilla Victorians should walk with the points. Comilla Victorians to win @ 1.67 (Melbet) Khulna Tigers to win @ 2.20 (Melbet)
