Exciting Dhaka League, Super League waiting for the last two teams

Dhaka Premier League, the only competition of list ‘A’ matches in the country’s cricket, is quite crowded. There is now extreme tension in the league with the participation of national team cricketers. The round-robin league games are almost at the end. Now everyone’s focus is on the fight to play in the Super League. After the round-robin league, the top six teams on the points list will play in the Super League. Each team will play five matches there. The top team will win the crown of Premier League excellence. According to the points list, Super League has already confirmed Abahani Limited, Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club, Legends of Rupganj, and Prime Bank Cricket Club. Speculation is rife as to who the final two teams are.

There are three teams in the primary battle, Gazi Group Cricketers, Mohammedan Sporting Club, and Rupganj Tigers Cricket Club. Each has two matches left. Gazi Group Cricketers will play against Brothers Union and Shinepukur Cricket Club. Mohammedan opponents Shinepukur Cricket Club and Dhaka Leopards and Rupganj Tigers will play against City Club and Brothers Union. With 9 points, Gazi Group and Mohammedan are at number five and six respectively. Rupganj Tigers are seventh with 7 points. The three teams have yet to play against each other in the last two rounds. As a result, those who win will be ahead in the points list and will ensure the Super League. If a team has equal points, the highest number of wins will be counted first. If there is no solution, a head-to-head count will be done. Finally, the net run rate will be calculated. The excitement that is spreading in the field of cricket shows that no one will give up on anyone at this stage. It will increase the excitement of the league.

Meanwhile, it is important for the teams to secure the Super League to maintain the consistency of performance. Because round-robin league points are also counted in Super League. Winning the title is relatively easy if you are ahead here and do well in the Super League. And the three teams at the bottom of the points table will play relegation league. Dhaka Leopards, a new team that emerged from the first division, will have to play in this league. Because in 9 matches they won only 1 game. Shinepukur can advance if they win two matches in the last two rounds. Their points are 4 in 9 matches with 2 wins. In that case, Agrani Bank, and City Club may burn their foreheads. But if they do well in the last two rounds, they will avoid relegation.
