Khulna Tigers will face Sylhet Sunrisers in the match 22 of Bangladesh Cricket League 2022. On February 3, they met for the first time in the tournament, and the Tigers won by nine wickets. The Tigers have won three of their six matches and are now in fourth place in the points table.
Last season, the Sylhet Sunrisers were a disappointment, and they have suffered yet again this season. It would be a huge surprise if they were to compete in this match, and they are in last place in the points table with three points across their name.
Weather
The weather forecast for the match is for bright skies with little risk of rain. The temperature may be around 21°C, and the humidity level should be approximately 60%.
Pitch
Sylhet’s pitch is notorious for helping slower bowlers and is not favourable to batting. When playing strokes on the up, batters must be cautious. Batting second should be the preferable option for the team that wins the toss.
