After winning the toss and batting first, Kalabagan would have thought that they could start well and mount the pressure on Shinepukur. The opposite, however, was what happened.

With just 18 runs on board with 8.3 overs consumed, they lost three wickets—one of which was of their star player Mohammad Ashraful. The right-handed batsman got out for a duck after playing 10 balls as Mohammad Saifuddin picked his scalp.

Sujon Hawladar picked up the two opening wickets as the openers Munim Shahriar and Jashimuddin scored 1 and 2 respectively. Kalabagan are currently batting at 55/3 after 8 overs.
