Rangpur Riders News

Rangpur Riders' eight-match winning streak came to an end against Comilla Victorians in Chattogram in their final round-robin clash of the season. James Neesham's unbeaten 69 singlehandedly took the Riders to a competitive 150 but Andre Russell's late carnage meant it was too little to defend.

In the dynamic rhythm of cricketing contests, even minute errors could reshape the momentum of a game. A  similar incident took place in Chattogram between Fortune Barishal and Rangpur Riders when Mominul Haque’s scintillating effort turned into a comedy of error resulting in a six.

Rangpur Riders get to back-to-back victories in the Sylhet leg as the thirties from Babar Azam, Fazle Mahmud, and Azmatullah Omarzai paved the Riders to a defendable total. Mahidul Islam Ankan’s fifty fell short as Hasan Mahmud and Omarzai’s excellent slog over bowling led to an eight-run win.

In a low-scoring encounter at the Sher E Bangla Stadium in Dhaka, both sides suffered early stutters. Although a 68-run sixth wicket stand helped Sylhet post 120 runs, Babar Azam and Azmatullah Omarzai stabilised the chase and denied further hiccups to seal the deal for the Riders.
