League-leaders Abahani Limited will be looking to extend their lead when they take on Prime Bank Cricket Club in their second round super league match of the ongoing Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League 2022-23 in Fatullah today.

Abahani currently have the sole lead in the league table with 22 points while reigning champions Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club have 20 points while both Prime Bank and Legends of Rupganj are in the next place with 16 points.

Abahani leapfrogged Sheikh Jamal in the points table after they beat Mohammedan Sporting Club by eight runs in the opening round match of the super league phase. Sheikh Jamal lost to Gazi Group Cricketers by seven wickets during their same round match.

Meanwhile, in the day’s other super league matches, Sheikh Jamal will face Mohammedan at the BKSP-3 ground while Rupganj will take on Gazi Group in Mirpur.

In the relegation league match, Shinepukur Cricket Club will face Dhaka Leopards at the BKSP-4 ground on the same day.

Dhaka Leopards have already been relegated from the league and if Shinepukur lost today’s encounter, they will also receive a similar fate before facing Agrani Bank Cricket Club in their last match.
