Central Districts are set to face Rangpur Riders in match No. 10 of the Global Super League (GSL) 2025 at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Thursday, July 17. This is going to be the final league match before the all-important final on Saturday, July 19. Rangpur have won their first two matches so far. Meanwhile, Central Districts have managed to get off the mark in their most recent fixture after starting the campaign with back-to-back defeats.
Here are the top three player battles to watch out for in Central Districts vs Rangpur Riders, Match 10 of GSL 2025:
1. Tom Bruce (Central Districts) vs Tabraiz Shamsi (Rangpur Riders):

Central Districts’ skipper Tom Bruce will be high on confidence after scoring a match-winning half-century in the last game against Hobart Hurricanes. Meanwhile, Tabraiz Shamsi will play a key role for the Riders through the middle overs. Their contest will be mouth-watering as well as crucial in the context of the game.
2. Kyle Mayers (Rangpur Riders) vs Matthew Forde (Central Districts):

Kyle Mayers is the leading run-getter in the tournament, and he could face fellow Barbadian cricketer Matthew Forde inside the powerplay if Rangpur lose a wicket early. Mayers likes to take the attack to the bowlers, while Forde has a lot of tricks up his sleeve that can bamboozle the veteran.
3. Ibrahim Zadran (Rangpur Riders) vs Ajaz Patel (Central Districts):

Ibrahim Zadran is a technically compact batter who likes to get his team off to a solid platform and serves as the anchor around which the power hitters can tonk the bowling. Ajaz Patel, on the other hand, will look to build pressure on him by bowling dots. Zadran is brilliant against the spinners, and Patel has the experience to get flummox the best batters around the world with his accuracy and guile.
