Durbar Rajshahi vs Dhaka Capital Chance of Winning
Durbar Rajshahi and Dhaka Capital haven't had a great start to the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2024/25, losing their respective season opener. They would be eager to get off the mark when they face off in the new year.
Durbar Rajshahi took on the defending champions Fortune Barishal in the opening game and suffered a four-wicket defeat. Having been asked to bat first, they lost two wickets inside four overs but Anamul Haque and Yasir Ali put on a 140-run partnership for the third wicket. Anamul hit 65 off 51 while Yasir went on to smash an unbeaten 94 off 47 to power the side to 197.
Durbar Rajshahi were in a dominant position in their defence, having reduced the opponents to 61/5 with Taskin Ahmed and Hasan Murad striking twice each. However, they could not get through the lower middle order as Faheem Ashraf and Mahmudullah took the champions over the line.
Dhaka Capital are coming off a loss against Rangpur Riders by 40 runs. Bowling first, they removed the opposition openers in three overs but then struggled to keep the run-rate in check. Mukidul Islam was the pick of the bowlers with 2 for 27 and Alauddin Babu picked three wickets but was expensive along with others.
Chasing 192, the Dhaka opening pair of Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das provided them a good platform with 65 in 7.3 overs. But the middle order failed to capitalise and kept losing wickets. They were soon reduced to 117/8 and could only reach 151.
Moving on to this encounter, Dhaka Capital are favourites according to the bookmakers. The two teams’ chances of winning this game are as follows.
- Durbar Rajshahi's chance of winning: 42%
- Dhaka Capital’s chance of winning: 58%
