The 3rd match of Bangladesh Premier League 2023 is scheduled to play between Dhaka Dominators and Khulna Tigers on Saturday, 7th January 2023 at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka.

Dhaka Dominators had been renamed from Minister Dhaka and they were not good in the previous season of the Bangladesh Premier League. They were the second worst performing team after the competition of the league matches. They had changed their total squad for this tournament as the new owner of this team has a lot of interest in cricket. Taskin Ahmed had been appointed as the new captain of this team.

The batting order of Dominators is very strong for this tournament which will be led by Taskin Ahmed. Al-Amin Hossain and Shoriful Islam are two other players who can play a main role in the batting order of this team. Arafat Sunny is another experienced player that can prove a main role in each and every match of this tournament. The Dominators had added Chamika Karunaratne to their squad. He is an experienced all-rounder from Sri Lanka and we are sure that he will play a main role in this team. He will not be part of the final playing eleven for this match as he is with his national team in India. Dilshan Munaweera, Soumya Sarkar, Shan Masood, and Ahmed Shehzad are also part of the squad of the Dominators.

The Tigers had lost some key players who performed well in the previous edition. Mushfiqur Rahim, Andre Fletcher, Sikandar Raza, and Thisara Perera are not part of the Tigers for this tournament.

Tamim Iqbal had been appointed as the new captain of the Khulna Tigers for this season of BPL. He was part of Dhaka in the previous season and we are sure that he will play a main role for his new team. Mahmudul Hasan Joy is another main player of this team who was part of the squad of Comilla Victorians in the previous season. Sabbir Rahman and Yasir Ali are the best all-rounders in the squad of the Tigers. Avishka Fernando and Dasun Shanaka are known as hard hitters of T20 cricket and are part of the squad of this team but both players will not the part of the final playing eleven as both players are on international duty.
