Butt out, but Shamsur Rahman going strong


The Dhaka Premier League storm is at its vehement best as
Mohammedan Sporting Club are moving steadily against Brothers Union. Former
Pakistan batsman Salman Butt gave them a good start, but departed for 62 from
80 balls.
However, Shamsur Rahman seems to have taken matters in his
own hands now as he batting fantastically at 75 from 94 balls. The right-handed
batsman is a powerful hitter of the ball and is showing just that against the
Brothers.

He is currently partnered by Rakibul Hasan Jr., who is
batting at 16 from 21 balls as Mohammedan have put up a total of 164 for 2 after
37 overs.
