Who Has the Best Chance to Win DPL T20 2021?
Prime Bank Cricket Club
Prime Bank won nine out of eleven games in the round-robin stage of the DPL T20 2021. We saw that the opening combination of Tamim Iqbal and RonyTalukdar had a great rapport in the first phase of the tournament. But Prime Bank are competing in the Super League without the country's best opener Tamim Iqbal. In place of him, Rubel Mia has opened the innings with RonyTalukdar in this round.
Rubel has made an instant impact as an opener. Prime Bank Cricket Club won the Super League round for the first time thanks to his 65-run knock against Mohammedan Sporting Club. They are currently in first position in the points table and will win the championship if they win their remaining games.
Mohammad Mithun has scored the most 353 runs in 13 innings while pace bowler Shoriful Islam has grabbed the most 18 wickets in 13 matches for Prime Bank Cricket Club.

Verdict
Abahani Ltd have remained unbeaten in the super league stage and have demonstrated more commitment to winning the competition. But their superstar captain Mushfiqur Rahim is out of the tournament after suffering an injury in Monday's encounter against the Gazi Group. So, Rahim's absence might affect their chances. Prime Bank and Prime Doleshwar will seize the opportunity to win the DPL T20 2021 title if Abahani fail to maintain their momentum.
