Good team effort from Prime Bank
The war between two banks began when Agrani won the toss and
elected to field first. Initially, things didn’t go according to plan as Mehedi
Maruf and Mehrab Hossain Jnr got Prime Bank off to a great start. Indeed, both
of them scored half-centuries and put up 94 runs for the opening partnership.
Mehedi Maruf was the first one to go after making 54 runs
from 66 balls. Mehrab Hossain soon departed after making 52 runs. Al-Amin got a
good start, but couldn’t convert it to big score as he got out for 25.
Zakir Hasan scored a duck while the rest of the middle order
got starts with Yusuf Pathan scoring 21, Ariful Haque making 39, Nahidul Islam
racing to 21 and Delwar Hossain playing a power-packed innings of 41 from 14
balls to take the score to 272/8 after 50 overs.
Shafiul Islam and Raza Ali Dhar took two wickets each while
Abdur Razzak and Azmir Ahmed got one scalp each as Agrani Bank will now have to
chase down 273 in 50 overs.
