FBA vs DBR Probable Winners:

Fortune Barishal is a settled unit that won four games in a row to claim the median title the previous season. They have an excellent squad that is well-balanced in both batting and bowling. Durbar Rajshahi is playing under a new name and making a comeback after five years. They might need a few games to settle into the tournament. We think that Fortune Barishal will have an advantage over Durbar Rajshahi in this game. Considering the team combination, Durbar Rajshahi is expected to win this match.
