Thank you very much for joining us- Mohul Bhowmick and Pradeep- for this exciting game from Sylhet. The BPL juggernaut rolls on and we will look forward to welcoming you tomorrow as well. Until next time, goodnight and take care!
Anamul Haque (Khulna Tigers' captain): We saw a lot of dew today. The ball was not gripping very well. The bowling unit did extremely well. Thanks to all our bowlers- without them, it would not have been possible. We did not expect to restrict them to 130 after the excellent start they got off to. Thanks to our bowlers, it was possible (smiles.) The boys are enjoying themselves. They have gelled well, they have fun and they do a lot of things together. Our coach too has played a crucial role.
Mohammad Nawaz is the Player of the Match! Here's what he has to say: They were going very good, we were looking for wickets, back to back wickets helped us and brought us back into the game. To be honest, we didn't think about restricting them to 130, but we were always looking for wickets and put them under pressure, we did that exactly.
Mosaddek Hossain (Durdanto Dhaka captain): We missed the momentum after getting a start like that, don't want to make any excuse but that wasn't a good batting performance. I don't think they bowled that well, we threw wickets away and was easily a 200 wicket, it's obviously disappointing. I hope we put up much better performance and bounce back in the next game.
Khulna Tigers beat Durdanto Dhaka by 10 wickets!

Khulna Tigers faced no challenges whatsoever from Durdanto Dhaka in their run chase and were able to get to their target in a rather efficient manner. Skipper and wicketkeeper opener Anamul Haque starred for them.
Anamul started his innings with a six off his toes off the bowling of Taskin Ahmed and that just seemed to whet his appetite. Evin Lewis, who opened the innings with Anamul, stroked his way to an eventful 26 but he had to walk off the ground and retired hurt after straining his side.
Afif Hossain came in to replace Lewis and picked up where the West Indian had left off. Anamul carried on in his merry ways from the other end.
The Dhaka bowlers seemed listless and the captaincy of Mosaddek Hossain appeared questionable. He waited for far too long to bring Shoriful Islam into the attack, and this played into the hands of Khulna. This win will give the latter a lot of confidence.
And that will be that! Khulna have won this game by 10 wickets!
14.4 Meharob Hasan to Anamul Haque, THAT'S IT! Khulna Tigers make it four in four! Darts a full delivery on the stumps, Anamul nudged it past square-leg for a single and seals the deal as Khulna Tigers thrash Dhaka by 10 wickets!
14.3 Meharob Hasan to Afif Hossain, floated the length delivery on the middle and leg. Afif leans and clipped it to backward square-leg for one more. Scores are level now!
14.2 Meharob Hasan to Anamul Haque, fires a low full toss on the off-stump, Anamul punched it down the ground to long-on for one more.
14.1 Meharob Hasan to Afif Hossain, floated a full delivery on the off-stump, Afif leans and drilled it down the ground to long-off for one.
Meharob Hasan, right arm off break, is the new bowler.
Khulna are just four runs away from victory- they will want to do so with all ten wickets in hand!

13.6 Gulbadin Naib to Anamul Haque, OH! Short outside the off-stump, Anamul cuts it through point, but the fielder inside the ring gets a hand to it and a stunning stop by sweeper cover to keep them for brace.
13.5 Gulbadin Naib to Anamul Haque, back of a length, tailed away on the seventh stump. Anamul reaches to cut that one hard, but gets beaten.
13.4 Gulbadin Naib to Anamul Haque, slower one, short and wide. Anamul looking to smash it away but mistimes it to short extra-cover for no run.
13.3 Gulbadin Naib to Anamul Haque, back of a length on the off-stump, Anamul works it down to long-on with soft hands, takes a sharp couple of runs.
13.2 Gulbadin Naib to Anamul Haque, bangs in the short delivery outside the off-stump, Anamul goes ducking under it, through to the keeper.
13.1 Gulbadin Naib to Afif Hossain, back of a length on the middle and off. Afif jabs it into the on-side for a single.
Gulbadin Naib [1-0-12-0] is back into the attack.
Qadir has been phenomenal for Dhaka, and it is strange as to why he was brought on so late in the attack. Dhaka do not have any means of winning this game from here.
