Rajshahi Warriors (RJW) take on Sylhet Titans (SLT) in Qualifier 2 of the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2025-26 at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Wednesday, January 21. Both teams
come with contrasting results.
Rajshahi finished the league stage at the top of the table, winning eight of their ten matches. However, they fell short in Qualifier 1 to Chattogram Royals by six wickets. Batting first, Rajshahi were bundled out for just 133, despite Tanzid Hasan’s 41 and a late cameo from Abdul Ghaffar Saqlain.
On the other hand, Sylhet Titans have taken the longer route. They ended fourth in the league with five wins and five losses, but kept their campaign alive with an Eliminator victory over Rangpur Riders. Chris Woakes was the hero, first with the ball and then with a last-ball six to seal a three-wicket win.
