Cricket Free Tips | BPL 2022, Match 1: Chattogram Challenger vs Fortune Barishal

The Bangladesh Premier League 2022 will begin on January 21 with a match between Chattogram Challengers and Fortune Barishal. Both teams have yet to win the competition and want to gain momentum from the start. The Challengers finished third in the previous season but were upset by the Rajshahi Royals’ second qualifier.

Fortune Barishal is a brand-new series that will premiere this season. Until the 2016 BPL season, Fortune Barishal was a franchise that represented the Barisal Division. Shakib Al Hasan, Chris Gayle, and Dwayne Bravo are among the best T20 cricketers in the world.

Weather
Throughout the game, the weather is forecast to be precise. There will be no rain, and the temperature will be 25°C.

Pitch
The Shere Bangla National Stadium pitch provides sufficient support for batters during the early innings. Spinners start to get enough help from the pitch as the game progresses. As a result, batting in the second half is more challenging than batting in the first. The team that wins the toss should pick to bat first.
