BPL 2024-25: Sylhet Strikers Take on Table-Toppers Rangpur Riders

The 9th fixture of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2024-25 season is set to witness a blockbuster clash between Sylhet Strikers and table-toppers Rangpur Riders at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on January 6.

The Rangpur Riders have made a remarkable start to their campaign, winning all three of their encounters this season. Led by Alex Hales, who recently smashed a 113 off 56 balls in a high-scoring match against Sylhet Strikers, the Riders will be looking to make it four wins in a row against their opponents who have only managed to win one out of their three encounters.

The Sylhet Strikers, on the other hand, have been struggling to find their footing this season, with their only win coming against a team other than Rangpur Riders. However, they will look to break their losing streak and halt Rangpur Riders' momentum. The Strikers will be hoping that their home advantage at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, which is expected to favor the batsmen, will help them achieve a winning game.

Both teams will be eyeing the top performers from their squad to make a difference in the match. The Rangpur Riders' batting lineup, led by Saif Hassan and Mahedi Hasan, has been impressive so far, and they will look to replicate their form in the upcoming match. Meanwhile, the Sylhet Strikers will be counting on their own solid performers to get the required momentum to take down the table-toppers.

The BPL 2024-25 match between Sylhet Strikers and Rangpur Riders is scheduled to start at 1:00 PM IST on January 6. Fans can catch the live streaming on the FanCode app and website. The winner-takes-all encounter is expected to be an exciting contest between two strong teams.
