...Presentation...
Thisara Perera says they didn't capitalize well as a batting unit, it was a 220 wicket. Shares they need to do well in the next half of the tournament. Tells as a bowler it is hard to bowl in these conditions.
Dhaka Capitals lost the momentum with the bat and that didn't help them overall. It was a 200 plus wicket but Dhaka Capitals lost crucial wickets and crawled their way close to 200. However, anything under that meant Sylhet Strikers were still in the game. Dhaka Capitals bowled well mostly but were untidy when it mattered the most. Thisara Perera must be scratching his head, what else could he have done differently? The way conditions were, it was hard for the bowlers to play under dew and they needed some extra runs to play with. Dhaka Capitals still await the first win of the season.
Sylhet Strikers finally open their account. That was some chase from them. It never looked comfortable but Sylhet Strikers somehow chased it down. Thanks to Zakir Hasan initially who despite losing wickets at the other end kept playing his own natural game and went onto score a blistering fifty. He fell at a crucial time and Sylhet Strikers lost a couple more wickets but then Rony Talukdar played a crucial knock along with Ali. Both fell in quick succession and the onus was on the skipper to take the team home from there on. Well, he played an innings just like a skipper always plays.
