Right then, that's it from the coverage of this game. The action in the Bangladesh Premier League continues as the match number 2 of the double-header will be kicking off shortly. The first ball will be at 6 pm IST. Although, you can join us early for the build-up. Until then, goodbye.
Litton Das, the skipper of Comilla Victorians talks about the game being a really good one for the batters who came back in form. HE also mentioned that Rishad Hossain has emerged as a trump card for them and he is very proud of the way that he has bowled. Extends his gratitude towards Will Jacks and Moeen Ali for their superb all-round performance in the game.
Will Jacks is the POTM, at the presentation he says that he feels really good to be scoring for the team. Adds by saying that it was a very good wicket to bat and the way Litton Das started the innings gave him alot of confidence to carry on from there and finished the innings really well with Moeen Ali. Ends by saying that it has been a good game for us and will give everyone alot of confidence.
... PRESENTATION CEREMONEY ...
Comilla Victorians were in trouble early on, especially with how the opening partnership was building, in simple words, it was an effortless knock with a huge impact. Nevertheless, Litton Das kept his nerves, there were a couple of dropped catches as well early on, but it was the magic of Rishad Hossain that got some composure back in the play for Comilla Victorians. Soon, Moeen Ali joined the party and both the spinners combined for 8 wickets, and put this game to bed.
Chattogram Challengers were always going to find it difficult to chase down the highest total in the history of the Bangladesh Premier League, but they started their run-chase emphatically well and on a promising note as well. Josh Brown and Tanzid Hasan, followed their own mantra of keeping things casual at the start, they dealt in just singles in the first over, but made sure they do the harm by punishing the poor deliveries. They stitched a wonderful opening stand of 80 runs, but both the openers were sent back in a jiffy. Although, both the teams were level at halfway stage at 103/2, so one could say it was still in the balance.
A commanding victory for the Comilla Victorians with a difference of 73 runs here. Moeen Ali with a fitting end to this game. Seals it with a hat trick. Hats Off!
