CMV vs SSR Team Previews
Comilla Victorians
Comilla Victorians were unable to put up much of a fight in their opening match as their leading batters failed to perform. Litton Das, Dawid Malan, and Mosaddek Hossain would have been expected to play a big role for the Victorians but all three of them got starts and then got out.
Malan looked good in his brief stay, though, and he is certainly someone that could come up with a massive match-winning inning.
The bowling lineup had a tough outing in the previous match as well. Fazalhaq Farooqi and Mustafizur Rahman were perhaps the two bowlers that escaped too much punishment and kept some measure of control.
Senior players like Mohammad Nabi, Imrul Kayes, and Khushdil Shah will have to play more of a central hand if the Victorians are to be suffessful in BPL 2023.
Comilla Victorians Playing 11
Imrul Kayes, Litton Das, Mosaddek Hossain, Jaker Ali Anik, Mustafizur Rahman, Abu Hider, Dawid Malan, Mohammad Nabi, Khushdil Shah, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Shykat Ali.
Sylhet Strikers
The Sylhet Strikers conceded 194 runs in their previous match but still managed to chase it down thanks to some terrific batting performances. One thing that has so far stood out for the Sylhet Strikers is that their batting performances have been based on local Bangladeshi players.
That is not always the case even in the BPL.
Najmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, Zakir Hasan, and Mushfiqur Rahim have all played well showing intent and the ability to score at a high strike rate. Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim (two Pakistani bowlers seemingly discarded from the national team) will lead the bowling attack for the Sylhet Strikers.
Two confident chases have resulted in two wins from two matches for the Strikers. That is an excellent start and should not be discarded as a fluke.
Sylhet Strikers Playing 11
Mashrafe Mortaza, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mohammad Haris, Zakir Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Towhid Hridoy, Akbar Ali, Thisara Perera, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Amir, Rejaur Rahman Raja.

Pitch and Conditions
There is no rain forecast in Dhaka on match day. The temperatures should be quite moderate as well. This is a day match and so dew should not play much of a role either.
We have seen score of 170 and above being scored quite comfortably in BPL 2023 so far. While the Dhaka surface can get slower quite quickly, it appears that for the time being it is in favor of the batters. 170 should be seen as par for the venue.
CMV vs SSR Betting Tips
We think the Comilla Victorians have a good chance of getting their first win of the season. Litton Das and Dawid Malan are the two form batters around which their team will rally. The Sylhet Sixers have a very useful team but the Comilla Victorians have a lot of experience and batting depth in their lineup that should help them edge this contest.
Bet on the Comilla Victorians to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
Dawid Malan has a terrific T20 record and he looked in pretty good touch in the previous match he played. As someone who averages nearly 50 over his T20 international career, we think he has a good chance of getting Over 20.5 in this match, especially as the surface is still good for batting.
