Legends of Rupganj came off the back of a sound win against Mohammedan in the last game. Today, as Prime Ban won the toss and elected to field first, Rupganj found themselves in a spot of bother after losing two wickets with just 9 runs on board.

Salaudding Pappu and Avishek Mitra could only score a run each as Shariful Islam and Delwar Hossain scalped them, respectively. After that, Abdul Mazid and Sami Islam steadied the ship a bit when the latter fell prey to the fangs of Nahidul Islam.

And then came the best partnership of the innings. Abdul Mazid and Naeem Islam dug themselves in and built up a partnership worth 135 runs. Mazid, in particular, was fantastic as he scored 110 runs from 122 balls before losing his wicket to Delwar Hossain.

On the other end, Naeem Islam got out soon after making 51 runs from 79 balls. The slow-paced nature of his innings meant that the lower-order batsmen had to raise a storm.

Tushar Imran couldn’t give the power ending that he did in the last game and got out for 12 after playing 18 balls. Nazmul Hossain Milon and Mosharraf Hossain scored 26 and 8, respectively, to push the score to 239 for 6 after 50 overs.
