Commentary

That's all from us then! We hope you enjoyed our coverage of this BPL game between Sylhet Strikers and Rangpur Riders. This is Soumarya Dutta signing off, on behalf of Karthik Raj. See you soon.

Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Player of the Match: Yeah, it was a flat track, need to be disciplined. If you give even a little bit of width, it will be a boundary. I noticed Mash bhai was bowling slower ball from around the wicket and the batsmen couldn't connect. So, I did the same

Nurul Hasan Sohan: We tried out best but hard luck. Need to give credit to my team-mates, the team management. I missed the delivery, if it was a six, would have been a different history. They supported us a lot. We are a young side and played as a team. The coaching staff worked really hard with us

Rangpur Riders 163/8 in 20 overs
Rony Talukdar 66(52) | Luke Wood 3/34
Nurul Hasan 33(24) | Tanzim Hasan Sakib 2/19

What an unbelievable victory for the Sylhet Strikers! They've snatched this out from the jaws of defeat! It was Rangpur's game when it headed in the last 4 overs but they couldn't hold their nerves. Rony Talukdar and skipper Nurul Hasan played really well and got them into a winning position. However the duo departed in back to back overs and that made the equation really tricky. Earlier Nicholas Pooran played a dazzling cameo of 30 runs to entertain the crowd before he was caught in the deep.

The Sylhet bowlers took some blows but they came back and did it in some style. Young Tanzim was incredible under pressure as he ended up with figures of 2/19 in four overs. Mashrafe Mortaza rotated his bowlers really well and he deserves a lot of credit for that. Luke Wood was sensational with the ball as it was his penultimate over that changed the course of the game. He was expensive early on but held his nerve to come back well and picked up 3 wickets for 33 runs. Not to forget the contribution of makeshift keeper Zakir who ran out Rony Talukdar , which turned out to be a game changing moment.

The playoffs are done then and we had an absolute thriller here today. In the end it's the Sylhet Strikers who are the deserving winners and they will join the Comilla Victorians for the finals.

19.6 Rubel Hossain to Dasun Shanaka, CASTLED!! Shanaka looks to move across and sweep but Rubel bowls a pin-point yorker. The ball goes onto strike the middle stump as Sylhet Strikers win the match by 19 runs and go through to the final!

19.4 Rubel Hossain to Dasun Shanaka, low full-toss, Shanaka looks to go big but he toe-ends it along the ground to long-on. He isn't interested to take a single

19.3 Rubel Hossain to Dasun Shanaka, Shanaka backs away but Rubel follows him with a yorker. The ball goes between Shanaka's legs. Superb work from the keeper to collect the ball down the leg-side. No run

19.2 Rubel Hossain to Dasun Shanaka, BACK-TO-BACK BOUNDARIES! Full outside-off, Shanaka stays deep and creams it through extra-cover for a boundary. FOUR! Shanaka is keeping Rangpur in the game somehow!

19.1 Rubel Hossain to Dasun Shanaka, MUCH-NEED BOUNDARY! Full and wide of off, Shanaka slashes hard and the ball goes behind point for a boundary!

Robiul Haque, RHB, comes to the crease.

Rubel Hossain [3.0-0-34-1] comes back into the attack.

What an incredible penultimate over from Luke Wood! He has given just 3 runs and has ensured that this game is out of reach now for the Rangpur Riders! He got two wickets in that over , first Mahedi and then the veteran Dwayne Bravo.

Dwayne Bravo c Thisara Perera b Luke Wood 0(1b 0x4 0x6)

Dwayne Bravo, RHB, comes to the crease.

Match winning over from Luke Wood! The Englishman has been unbelievable at the death and he has all but knocked out the Riders out of this one. Mahedi is gone and it's falling apart for the Rangpur team at the moment.

18.5 Luke Wood to Mahedi Hasan, EDGED AND IT IS A STUNNER! Full and angling across off, Mahedi looks to slog towards the leg-side but he gets a thick outside-edge. Zakir Hasan dives to his right and pulls off a brilliant catch!

18.2 Luke Wood to Mahedi Hasan, full and slow outside-off, Mahedi moves across to play the scoop shot but he doesn't get bat on ball. Another dot delivery!
