Sylhet Thunder have scored 141-5 in their last match of the tournament against Cumilla Warriors in the Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) T20 2019-20.
Winning the toss, Cumilla skipper Dawid Malan, who has returned after he missed Cumilla's previous match due to personal reasons, decided to bat later on the day as he invited his counterpart Andre Fletcher to bat.
Sylhet were off to a slow start as they notched up only 32 in the powerplay, losing the wicket of their skipper Fletcher to Al-Amin Hossain. A 37-run stand between Abdul Majid and Johnson Charles brought some stability but no real flurry before Al-Amin struck again to send Charles back.
Mohammad Mithun came in and slowed down the run-rate before he finally went back for 18 off 25 deliveries as he was stumped by Mahidul Islam Ankon off Mujeeb-ur-Rahman in the 17th over.
Sylhet managed to score 47 runs in the last five overs to reach 141/5. Majid top-scored with 45 runs whereas Al-Amin and David Wiese picked up two wickets each.
