... PRESENTATION CEREMONY ...
Rangpur Riders batted well in the first innings to get to 211. They were positive from the word GO and were getting the boundaries easily. Chattogram Challengers bowlers had no answer to the way the batters played and were taken to the cleaners. James Neesham came in late and scored a brilliant half century in no time at all to take his team to 211 along with Nurul Hasan. Rangpur Riders were brilliant with the ball too, restricting the other team to 158/6 after 20 overs. Its a 56 run win for the Rangpur Riders and they stay at the top of the table.
With that, we come to the end of the game and it's Rangpur Riders who win by 53 runs after scoring a massive 211 in the first innings of the match. Rangpur Riders came out and defended the score well too by playing the game smart and holding their plans well. They did not give the batters any opportunity to score freely and were on point since the start. Shykat Ali was the only one to score 64 for Chattogram Challengers and still was not able to get his team over the line. Rangpur Riders stay at the top of the table with 12 points after this brilliant win. Chattogram Challengers only managed to score 158 for the loss of 6 wickets in their quota of 20 overs.
