Fortune Barishal (FBA) and Rangpur Riders (RRR) are set to face each other in Match No. 3 of the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2024 on Saturday, January 20, at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.

In the previous edition, Barishal secured victories in seven matches and faced five defeats out of the 12 played in the round-robin phase. Finishing fourth on the points table, they encountered Rangpur in the Eliminator, ultimately losing by four wickets in a closely contested game that concluded in the last over.

Last season, Shakib Al Hasan led Barishal, but this time, he will be part of the Riders, playing under the captaincy of Nurul Hasan Sohan. Shakib opted not to bear the captaincy pressure, leading to the decision by Rangpur management to retain Sohan as their leader. Rangpur recorded eight wins and four losses last season, securing the third spot on the points table. Despite defeating Barishal in the Eliminator, they faced a 19-run defeat against Sylhet Strikers in Qualifier 2.
