Presentation time...
We said Chattogram Challengers looked 10-15 runs short and it turned out to be true. The middle order collapse didn't help them but the striking from Reza did give some hope. They had a decent time with the ball but Khulna Tigers played really well to take all the points. Khulna Tigers bowled well on this pitch. Wahab Riaz ended with four and was the main architect of Chattogram Challengers' downfall.
A fantastic chase from Khulna Tigers. They chased it down really well. First, it was Tamim Iqbal and Mahmudul Hasan Joy who without risking much played wonderfully and laid a platform. Their stand crossed 100 and it looked like they will do the job but both fell in quick succession. However, Azam Khan and Yasir Ali joined hands to release all the pressure and take their team home in style. Just their second win. Khulna Tigers will hope this is their turning point in the season.
