COV vs FBA Dream11 Key Players
Comilla Victorians
Mustafizur Rahman: Mustafizur is one of the best fast bowlers in T20 cricket, he is a death overs specialist and bowls a lot of cutters which will be very effective on this pitch. He is the strike bowler for his side and a must-pick player for your fantasy team.
Faf du Plessis: Faf is one of the top batters in the world and is in excellent form as well. Although he failed in the first match but expect him to do well. He opened the innings in the last match and can exploit the field restrictions in the first six overs.
Nahidul Islam: Nahidul will be an excellent pick in this match he will bowl 4 overs of his off-break and will bat in the middle order as well. He picked 2 wickets and scored 16 runs in the last match. He will contribute with both bat and ball and can fetch a lot of points for your Dream11 team.
Fortune Barishal
Shakib Al Hasan: Star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan will be the main player for his team with his all-around attributes. He will bowl 4 overs and will bat at number 3. He hasn’t performed up to his name but he is an experienced campaigner and knows how to handle these situations. Shakib will be a top pick for fantasy cricket.
Chris Gayle: The Universe Boss played his first game in the BPL and scored 36 runs. He was looking in good form and will look to improve as well. Gayle is arguably the best batter in the shortest format and performed for decades now. Expectations will be high from him in this match and in the whole tournament as well.
Dwayne Bravo: DJ Bravo is another T20 legend in this Fortune Barishal squad. He has the most number of wickets in T20 cricket and has done well in the first two games of BPL 2022. He scored 33 runs and picked up a wicket in the last match. His slower deliveries will suit this pitch a lot.
