Bangladesh Premier League News

Fortune Barishal beat Comilla Victorians by six wickets to lift their first Bangladesh Premier League title in Dhaka. Chasing 155 runs, the Barishal batting looked strong with a great partnership from Tamim Iqbal and Mehidy Hasan Miraz, while Kyle Mayers' 30-ball 46 paved the way for victory.

Redemption doesn't lie in avoiding falls altogether, but in the resilience to rise each time we stumble. Obed McCoy of Fortune Barishal exemplified this principle when he redeemed himself by taking a spectacular catch to dismiss Sunil Narine, despite having missed a running catch earlier.

Presence of mind can take one a long way in cricket and no one epitomized it better than MS Dhoni with his exploits still as legendary and awe-inducing. Shohidul Islam unwittingly tribute to the Indian on Tuesday by brilliantly imitating the between-the-leg throw to trump Evin Lewis.

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.
