Dhaka, 6 Feb-Fortune Barishal captain Tamim Iqbal said they are looking forward to winning another title of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) when they take on Chittagong Kings on Friday in Dhaka.
Barishal won last year’s title—the first in BPL history. Tamim said they are confident of lifting the title again.
Ahead of the final, Barishal are the top team in the points table, meaning they are stepping to the final as the favourite to win the trophy.
In the pre-final press conference, Tamim was delighted with the supporter base the Barishal team has enjoyed throughout the event.
“Wherever we played—in Dhaka, Chattogram or Sylhet—we get a lot of support,” Tamim said. “Barishal has been very successful in garnering a great support base.”
While Barishal has been at the top places of the points table, Chittagong have also done well so far. They beat Khulna Tigers to book a place in the final, and they proved that they can be a tough opponent for Barishal in the final.
The final will take place at 6:30pm (Dhaka time). And the tickets for the final are already out and on sale.
