Khulna Titans 213 for 5 (Pooran 57, Afif 54*) beat Rajshahi Kings 145 (Rony 36, Shafiul 5-26) by 68 runs
Live scorecard and ball-by-ball details
Khulna Titans overtook Dhaka Dynamites to go clear on top of the BPL, after crushing Rajshahi Kings by 68 runs. Shafiul Islam‘s maiden five-for in T20s helped shut down Rajshahi despite having to tackle Chittagong’s heavy evening dew.
Khulna’s 213 for 5 was built around contributions from Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Afif Hossain, Nicholas Pooran and Carlos Brathwaite who ensured their run-rate never went down. Afif and Pooran got fifties as they very nearly toppled the BPL’s all-time highest team score, which is still held by Dhaka Gladiators’ 217 for 4 since 2013.
