The last game of the Bangladesh Premier League 2025–2026 will pit the Chattogram Royals (CHR) against the Rajshahi Warriors (RJW). The Shere Bangla National Stadium will host this game on Friday, January 23. After defeating Rajshahi Warriors by six wickets in Qualifier 1 in Mirpur, Chattogram Royals are going into this match. The Royals executed a disciplined bowling performance that held Rajshahi in check throughout the innings after winning the toss and choosing to bowl first.
However, Rajshahi Warriors demonstrated remarkable fortitude to recover from that setback. They put on a great all-around performance to defeat the Sylhet Titans by 12 runs in Qualifier 2, which took place in Mirpur once more. Rajshahi, who batted first, amassed a respectable 165 for 9, which was based on a cool 45 from Kane Williamson and a scorching 44 off 26 balls from James Neesham near the end.

Shere Bangla National Stadium Pitch Report:
For stroke play and forming partnerships, the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka typically provides a batting-friendly surface with genuine bounce. With the new ball, fast bowlers can get some early movement, but as the innings go on, the benefit usually wears off rapidly. In the middle overs, the pitch tends to flatten out, giving batters a consistent scoring rate. Later on, when the surface slows down and provides some grip, spinners can become useful. Dew can help hitters in twilight games, frequently providing chasing teams a little advantage. All things considered, the pitch offers a fair game, with teams with a disciplined spin attack and good batting depth typically winning.
Shere Bangla National Stadium Weather Forecast:
Conditions at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka are predicted to be serene and ideal for cricket on the evening of January 23.

As is normal for Dhaka at this time of year, the skies are expected to be clear to partly cloudy with little chance of rain.

All in all, it appears to be a lovely winter evening, perfect for an unbroken night game.
