DHAKA, Feb 1, 2025 (BSS)-Opener Taznid Hasan Tamim smashed a valiant 37 ball-58, which included one four and seven sixes but despite his effort, his side Dhaka Capitals were able to put up just 123-9 against Khulna Tigers in their final match of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) today.

The match, however, has little significance for Dhaka, who had been eliminated from the playoffs race already. But for Khulna, the match is a must- win game. If they win it, they will confirm the playoffs, at the expense of Durbar Rajshahi.

Apart from Tanzid, no Dhaka batters could put up any resistance with Sabbir Rahman making the next-best 20. Mehehdi Hasan Rana with 13 and Liton Das with 10 were the only two other batters to reach double digits.

Pacer Hasan Mahmud did most of the damage to Dhaka with an exceptional bowling figure that read 4-1-5-2. William Bosisto also took two wickets for just 10 runs in four overs.
