Rajshahi Kings vs Khulna Titans, 23rd Match

Khulna Titans won by 2 wkts

RAJSHAHI 166/8 (20.0 Ovs)

Dwayne Smith c Hossain Shanto b Afif Hossain 62

Darren Sammy (c) c A Haque b Junaid Khan 3

Carlos Brathwaite 4 0vers 33 runs 1 wicket

Dwayne Smith and Rahim helped Rajshahi recover after they had slumped to 21/3 in three overs. Both batsmen counter-attacked to get the run-rate up and in the process got to their respective fifties. However, the lower order could not capitalize and they had to be content with a competitive total. The surface has something in it for all which makes the chase interesting. Back soon with Khulna's reply..


KHULNA 168/8 (19.2 Ovs)

Chadwick Walton (wk) b Sami 4

Carlos Brathwaite b Franklin 12

Dwayne Smith 2.2 0vers 26 runs 1wicket

Ariful Haque has won it single-handedly for Khulna. Came pretty late in the innings, when his team was virtually out of the match. Sami was bowling some brilliant yorkers and it looked all but over for Khulna.

But Haque kept his calm and managed 18 runs off the 18th over, Hossain Ali was the unlucky bowler. Once the equation was achievable, he ensured that he had the strike for the last over.
Needed only two balls in the last over from Smith to seal the deal. Earlier it was a valiant effort from skipper Mahmudullah which had kept them in the game for most part of the innings before some late wickets brought Rajshahi back.
