Chasing a big target, Sylhet faced early setbacks as George Munsey (3) and Zakir Hasan (8) were dismissed cheaply. However, opener Rony Talukdar kept the chase alive with a 33-ball fifty. He eventually scored 68 off 44 balls before being bowled by Thisara Perera.
In the final overs, Zakir Ali (28 off 13) and Ariful Haque (29 off 13) reignited Sylhet's hopes, but Dhaka’s bowlers held their nerve.
