With a $10,000 performance bonus already announced and history within reach, the Riders enter the final high on confidence.
Rangpur’s unbeaten run to the final included a win over Guyana in the opener, a thrilling 1-run victory against Hobart Hurricanes, and an 8-run triumph over Dubai Capitals. Head coach Mohammad Ashraful credited experience and adaptability, noting 150-160 as a winning score in challenging conditions.
He praised captain Nurul’s composed leadership and pacer Khaled Ahmed’s standout form—10 wickets in 3 games. “Nurul’s calm presence lifts the bowlers’ confidence,” Ashraful said, adding that scoring in Georgetown requires patience, as even poor deliveries are tough to dispatch.
