Defending champion Rangpur Riders all-rounder Farhad Reza believes that their top-four is making life easier for them in the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League.

Riders top four- Chris Gayle, Alex Hales, Rille Rossouw and AB de Villiers- unarguably considered to be the best in the business when it comes to the top-order in the shortest format of the game.

Though Chris Gayle is yet to leave any impression the other three batsmen had already plundered respective centuries to help Rider bail out during their last four successive wins that looked to be quite a turnaround given they had won only two games out of their opening six games.

According to Farhad they are extremely comfortable with them at the top while added that he is sure Gayle will not take long to return back to form as he is a player of big match.

“We have nothing to say about the four batsmen that we have in the team,’’ Farhad told reporters after his match winning performance against Rajshahi Kings.

‘’They just make our work simple. They discuss with us how it will be easier for us,’’ he said.

‘’They have been playing for us well since last four-five matches. We are yet to face any threat. We did not get chance for batting for the last three matches,’’ he said

‘’In T20 if top-order doesn’t score, you will not get more from the lower order. They are regularly playing across the world,’’ he said adding that adding they are no worried about Gayle’s form what so ever.

‘’But I believe in big player like Chris Gayle will deliver in the big stage,’’ he remarked.

For Farhad this BPL is nothing short of a fairy tale as he managed to come up with some match winning performance on the back of his 17 wickets so far along with  a cameo [six-ball 18] that helped them edge past  Sylhet Sixers at their own den.

‘’Obviously every match is important for me. Always I try to play better cricket in every match. I am yet to get satisfaction for my performance. We have some more games ahead. We will look to improve ourselves in every game.
