Chittagong Kings have their strength in the batting unit. They have a good depth and their top order is in the right form. The Kings also have a strong bowling lineup where they are not dependent on wickets for a single player.
Dhaka Capitals have a major void in their batting unit and their bowlers have also come out as a weaker section. We predict a win for the Chittagong Kings on Thursday.
