Batsman: Tamim Iqbal (10 credits)

Tamim Iqbal started off the season by scoring 35 runs but he failed to replicate the same performance against Rangpur Raiders got out cheaply by just scoring just four runs. He is arguably the hardest hitter of the ball who ruthlessly destroys the bowlers on his day, with a strike-rate of 118.62 in 179 T20s.

All-rounder: Shahid Afridi (8.5 credits)

Shahid Afridi has scored 64 runs with a strike rate of 148.83 in two matches so far and also has a wicket to his name. He is one of the most destructive middle order batsmen within few overs he can turn the outcome of the match. Due to the lack of runs from the top order batsmen he can also play a crucial role in top order if his team requires. At just 8.5 credits he is really a great steal to pick in your team.

Bowler: Mustafizur Rahman (9 credits)

Mustafizur Rahman, aka Fizz will be the key man for Rajshahi Kings in the bowling department because kind of accuracy and variations he has. Though he has picked only two wickets so far, he has been economical, conceding at just 5.62 runs in two games. His impressive slower cutters can cause more troubles to the batsmen because of that he is the bowler to watch out for.

Captain: Shahid Afridi

Vice-captain: Tamim Iqbal

Predicted Playing XI:


Comilla Victorians: Tamin Iqbal, Evin Lewis, Imrul Kayes, Steven Smith (c), Shoaib Malik, Anamul Haque (wk), Shahid Afridi, Mohammad Saifuddin, Mahedi Hasan, Abu Hider Rony, Mohammad Shahid
