...Presentation...
Sylhet Strikers make it two in two against Durdanto Dhaka this season. Chasing such a low score, they just needed one partnership and it came between Benny Howell and Ryan Burl. Before that, runs were coming but at a cause, they kept on losing wickets but the job was done in the end by Burl mainly. The win was set up by bowlers who were just superb with their lines and lengths. Rejaur Rahman was the pick with three wickets.
A really exciting game in the end! We felt like Sylhet Strikers would chase it without much trouble but credit to Durdanto Dhaka for the way they played. The bowlers gave their all. Took wickets at regular intervals but the sensed a win when Usman Qadir came into the action. He was unplayable today, he did end with two wickets but Durdanto Dhaka were short of runs dearly. 15-20 runs more could have helped them a lot.
