Match Preview CV vs SS BPL 2022 -23
Sylhet Strikers (SYL) played remarkably well throughout the league stage of the Bangladesh Premier League. However, they are now in a tight spot before the mega-final. This is due to the departure of two important players, Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir, who left for the Pakistan Super League, causing a disruption in the team combination. As a result, they performed poorly in Qualifier 1 against Comilla Victorians (COV) and will be under tremendous pressure when they take on the three-time champions once again at the Shere Bangla Stadium on February 16.
On the other hand, the Imrul Kayes-led side will be more relaxed. Their foreign addition ahead of Qualifier 1 worked wonders, with Sunil Narine being phenomenal with both bat and ball. Andre Russell was ordinary in the recently concluded ILT20, but on his return to BPL, the all-rounder lived up to his potential, picking up two crucial wickets. With brilliant bowling, they restricted Sylhet to just 125 runs, eventually winning the match comfortably.
Meanwhile, Sylhet won the eliminator and qualified for the finals after beating Rangpur Riders by 19 runs on Monday. Although no one in particular made a massive difference, their batting unit overall looked in good touch. Luke Wood picked up three wickets with the ball, while Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Rubel Hossain picked up two each. Despite the win, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
