Presentations coming up...
Earlier in the game, Usman Khan delivered a stunning performance, scoring the first century of BPL, leading the Chittagong Kings to a total of 219. Chittagong started poorly, but Usman and Graham Clark formed an explosive partnership. Clark scored 40 before being out, and Usman went on to make 123 runs off just 48 balls. Mohammad Mithun and Haider Ali added few runs towards the end to boost the total. In terms of bowling, Taskin Ahmed was the most effective for Rajshahi, taking 2 wickets for 22 runs, while Sohag Gazi, Shafiul Islam, and Ryan Burl each took one wicket.
Ultimately, they were bowled out for a mere 114 runs, resulting in a comprehensive 105-run victory for the Chittagong Kings. Arafat Sunny and Aliss Islam excelled with the ball for the Chittagong Kings, collectively taking 6 wickets. Overall, it as an all round performance from the Chittagong Kings!
A strong all-around performance as the Chittagong Kings beat Durbar Rajshahi by 105 runs! In their chase of 220 runs, Rajshahi faced an early setback with the dismissal of Sabbir Hossain for just 9 runs. Following this, Mohammad Haris and Anamul Haque managed to form a brief partnership, contributing 32 runs for the second wicket. However, Anamul’s dismissal marked the beginning of Rajshahi's decline, as they struggled to maintain momentum. Their lineup continued to falter, and wickets fell at regular intervals, preventing any substantial recovery as they fell well behind the required run rate.

Mohammad Wasim 24/2(3.1)
OUT! LBW! Mohammad Wasim finishes the job! On a length on middle and leg, Sohag Gazi looks to flick it but misses as the ball hits his pads. A loud appeal and the finger goes up. Sohag Gazi refers. Ultra Edge shows no spike and Ball Tracking shows three reds. The onfield decision stands. Chittagong Kings beat Durbar Rajshahi by 105 runs!
