The knockout stage of the 2024 Bangladesh Premier League begins on Monday afternoon in Mirpur, with Fortune Barishal taking on Chattogram Challengers in the Eliminator! Barishal finished level on points with Chattogram, but had a higher net-run-rate in the group stages. Chattogram Challengers started the tournament well before faltering in the middle stages and then regaining momentum in the late stages of the group stage. They will bring some winning momentum to this match, but they may struggle to advance beyond it. Fortune Barishal defeated Comilla Victorians by 6 wickets with 2 balls remaining to complete their group stage fixtures on Friday, and we expect that result to put them in a good frame of mind heading into Monday afternoon.

There isn’t much bounce on this pitch, but the ball turns for the spinners and grips when the pacers hit slower balls. Any score above 165 in the first innings will be difficult to chase down.
Although the weather has been pleasant, this game appears to be at risk of rain. However, if it does arrive, it will be in the second half of the match, allowing us to get a good number of overs in.

We can expect a closely contested game in Mirpur for this Eliminator fixture, with both teams aware that defeat will send them crashing out of the tournament. Both teams have achieved good results in recent games, but Fortune Barishal has been the most impressive. Our prediction is that the Chattogram Challengers will push them all the way, but Fortune Barishal will win on Monday. Considering the team combination, Fortune Barishal is expected to win this match.
