That's all we have from the first day of this season's Bangladesh Premier League. On Saturday, two games are lined up for your entertainment - Dhaka Dominators vs Khulna Tigers at 1.30 pm IST (8 am GMT) and Fortune Barishal vs Sylhet Strikers at 6.30 pm IST (1 pm GMT). Do join us in advance for the build-up of both games. Cheers!
Nurul Hasan, the skipper of Rangpur Riders, says that it's a great start for them and praises the way Rony Talukdar and Mohammad Naim opened for them. Adds that on this wicket, if you target big right from the start then it becomes a problem. Feels that the dew factor worked for them. He lauds the efforts of his bowlers, especially under wet conditions.
Rony Talukdar (67 off 31 balls) is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH. Rony says that the pitch was good and he enjoyed playing on it. Says that it can't be put into words how he feels about having the fastest fifty by a Bangladeshi player in the competition and is happy to contribute to the team. Adds that they had good bowlers and knew that if they scored 170-180 runs they would be able to defend it.
Imrul Kayes, the captain of Comilla Victorians, says that they gave away a few extra runs and that cost them the game. Feels that they started well with the bat but failed to finish the match. Credits his bowlers for the way they bowled at the death. Tells that he was trying to hit the ball hard but it was tough. Hopes that they will come back in the next game.
The Presentation ceremony...
Earlier in the game, Imrul Kayes won the toss and decided to bowl first as he hoped that the dew factor would help with the chase. Rangpur Riders were off to a flier as Rony Talukdar smashed the ball to all parts of the ground but as the game progressed the batters found it difficult to press on the accelerator. The Comilla Victorians bowlers did well to pull back things and keep the opposition well under 200 runs which seemed gettable at one point. Coming out to chase, the Victorians' innings started falling apart in the middle phase and they never looked like getting back in the contest.
Comilla Victorians will be disappointed with their efforts as they were outclassed with both bat and ball. They got off to a fast start but lost star batter Litton Das early. Dawid Malan also fell and it was only the skipper Imrul Kayes who put up a fight. He didn't receive much support from the other end and they fell well short of the target in the end.
Rangpur Riders had a decent total on the board and needed a few wickets at the start which they did and that put them on top of proceedings. Hasan Mahmud was the pick of the bowlers as he picked three wickets and everyone else chipped in as well. The likes of Sikandar Raza and Benny Howell used all of their experience to seal the win for the Riders.
The reigning champions have been humbled! It has been a clinical performance by Rangpur Riders to start their campaign with a big win over one of the top teams.

Strategic Time-Out! 58 runs are needed off 29 balls. This has been an exciting watch thus far and it seems to be going down to the wire. But with Mosaddek Hossain and Imrul Kayes both getting out in quick succession, it seems like Rangpur Riders have the upper hand. Can the experience of Mohammad Nabi see the reigning champions home? With that said, Jaker Ali walks out to bat.

Benny Howell To Mosaddek Hossain OUT!
OUT! STUMPED! A well-disguised cutter from Howell. He dishes it around middle and leg, trying to follow the batter. Mosaddek tries to hit down the ground but misses and in the process drags his back foot outside the crease. Nurul is very smooth with his glovework and takes the bails off. He appeals and starts to celebrate. The square leg umipre refers it upstairs and the replays find Mosaddek outside the crease. End of his struggling knock and now both the set batters are gone. 58 needed off 29 balls.
Is that stumped? Mosaddek Hossain seems to be out of his crease and Nurul Hasan is excited. It is sent upstairs and the replays show that the back foot of Mosaddek is not grounded. Out is the decision on the big screen.
Some issues with the shape of the ball. The umpires are getting it replaced. The new nut will be drier and Rangpur Riders' bowlers will be able to grip it better. Benny Howell is back on...

Strategic Time-Out! It has been a good contest so far in the chase but Rangpur Riders will certainly be the happier of the two sides. With Litton Das and Dawid Malan both back in the hut, a lot depends on the pair of Mosaddek Hossain and Imrul Kayes to take their side home. With 113 runs needed off 66 balls, the Riders will feel they have things under control and a couple of more wickets here will put them right on top of things.
