Presentations coming up...

Earlier in the game, Fortune Barishal chose to field first and managed to get some early wickets. They did get wickets at regular intervals but every other batter of Chattogram Challengers kept the scoreboard ticking for them. Khaled Ahmed and Mohammad Wasim were the only economical bowlers, the rest of them leaked runs. Later, Shakib Al Hasan conceded 18 runs off the final over which made the Chattogram Challengers end their innings at 168 runs.

Chattogram Challengers just have themselves to blame for this loss. They had the game in their control but were quite sloppy with their fielding. They dropped Karim Janat on 29 once as well. Mohammad Nihaduzzaman was the pick of the bowlers who provided a spell of 4-0-17-4 but it all went down to the drain. Mrittunjoy Chowdhury was economical too barring the 19th over he bowled, which went down for 14 runs.

Fortune Barishal were off to a good start and it looked like they had the game in control. They were 69 for one wicket at the end of the seventh over. They lost their skipper and Mahmudullah in the eighth over and the whole complexion of the game changed for a while. They still had Anamul Haque who went down in the 15th over. Karim Janat then, came on with all guns blazing and scored 17 runs off the 17th over and got the game back in their control. They needed 52 runs in 26 balls at 12 rpo when he came on, and he scored a quickfire 31 runs off 12 balls and won the game for his team. Salman Hossain played a fine cameo of 18 runs from 14 deliveries at the end as well.
