CCH vs FBA Match Preview

The knockout stage of the 2024 Bangladesh Premier League begins on Monday afternoon in Mirpur, with Fortune Barishal taking on Chattogram Challengers in the Eliminator! Barishal finished level on points with Chattogram, but had a higher net-run-rate in the group stages. Chattogram Challengers started the tournament well before faltering in the middle stages and then regaining momentum in the late stages of the group stage. They will bring some winning momentum to this match, but they may struggle to advance beyond it. Fortune Barishal defeated Comilla Victorians by 6 wickets with 2 balls remaining to complete their group stage fixtures on Friday, and we expect that result to put them in a good frame of mind heading into Monday afternoon.

CCH vs FBA Pitch Report

There isn’t much bounce on this pitch, but the ball turns for the spinners and grips when the pacers hit slower balls. Any score above 165 in the first innings will be difficult to chase down.
