Predicted Lineup: Babar Azam, Azmatullah Omarzai, and Mahedi Hasan are the key players in the team.
Sylhet Strikers is a weak team. Their experienced players have failed to perform as per the expectations. The fresh faces have also turned out to be a complete failure and hence the team is suffering overall.
Rangpur Riders have a good lineup of batters with their bowling unit scalping wickets at the right time. We predict a win for Rangpur Riders on Saturday.
