The most in-form teams in the Dhaka Premier League are Abahani Limited and Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club. Sitting atop the table as the top two teams, the clash between these two is the clash of titans. After winning the toss and electing to bat first, Abahani started with a stutter.

Indeed, opener Saif Hassan couldn’t come up with an inspirational performance as he got out for 8 runs. Sohag Gazi took his wicket. Nazmul Hossain Shanto came in next and didn’t trouble the scorers much for his 1 run.

Captain Nasir Hossain was the next to go after getting a start, making 11 runs from 23 balls before Elias Sunny outfoxed him. Mohammed Mithun also departed soon after making 14 from 28 balls. Anamul Haque Bijoy, meanwhile, gave his team a fine innings as he has made his first century in this year’s DPL.

Bijoy is currently batting at 100 from 110 balls with Mosaddek Hossain partnering him at 32 from 51 balls.
