Najmul XI already made a flying start to their campaign with a 4-wicket win over Mahmudullah XI in the tournament opener.

In the third game of the BCB President's Cup, Najmul XI will be bowling first after winning the toss against Tamim XI.
Najmul XI already made a flying start to their campaign with a 4-wicket win over Mahmudullah XI in the tournament opener. Their pacers built a kingdom of their own before Towhid Hridoy and Irfan Shukkur scored brilliant half centuries to seal the match for them. 

Tamim XI, on the other side, had a disappointing start. They lost to Mahmudullah XI by 5 wickets after managing to score only 103 runs before getting all out where pacers dominated once again. They will surely look to make a grand comeback as the Tamims set to open together again. 

Najmul XI playing with the same eleven while Tamim XI brought in the U-19 World Cup-winning captain Akbar Ali for leg spinner Minhazul Abedin Afridi. 

Overcast conditions and rain did play their part in the previous two matches. But today seems to be a sunny day, which will hopefully favor the batsmen. 

 

Meanwhile, junior Tamim has gone back to the pavilion being caught at mid-on off Al Amin.
