Rajshahi Warriors' skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto has been in stunning form in the tournament so far.

The southpaw has made some solid contributions to his team and would like to continue his purple patch on Friday.

Probable Best Bowler: Shoriful Islam

Chattogram Royals' pacer Shoriful Islam could be the bowler to watch out for in the summit clash of the BPL 2025-26. He is the leading wicket-taker this season, with 24 scalps from 11 matches. The left-arm speedster is averaging 9.54 and has an economy rate of 5.60. Rajshahiwill have to be wary of Islam's four-over spell.
