Match 36 of the ongoing T20 cricket carnival Bangladesh Premier League (BPL 2024-25) will be played between Durbar Rajshahi (DBR) and Sylhet Strikers (SYL), at the Shere Bangla National Stadium, in Mirpur. Notably, the upcoming fixture will be played on Monday, January 27.
Speaking of Rajshahi, the team stunned everyone by stopping the winning streak of Rangpur Riders, as they suffered their first loss of the BPL season in the last game. So far, Rajshahi have won only four games out of the 10 they’ve played. Hence, the franchise will be looking to continue the momentum ahead to have the top four spot in sight.
Notably, when it comes to facing Sylhet, the side showed resilience to overcome their losing streak as they defeated their opponent by a margin of 24 runs in their last clash. As a result, they have still kept their hopes of making it to the playoffs intact. Sylhet on the other hand, will look to avenge their last loss against Rajshahi. In doing so, they will hope to bounce back in the ongoing tournament. Currently, they sit at the bottom of the BPL points table, although with a marginally better Net Run Rate (NRR) than Rajshahi.

Pitch Report
The renowned venue Shere Bangla National Stadium offers quite a lot of assistance to the batters. Batters often get high value for their shots. Early movement is expected from pacers, but it will be crucial to how spinners will act once the surface starts slowing down in the latter phase of the game.
