The openers added 41 runs after which Barishal tasted a hiccup, losing four wickets for 39 runs with Fazle Mahmud and Abdulah bagging duck.

Ifti, however, stayed calm under pressure to lead the side to the victory.

Barishal replied with 341 all out, taking a 68-run lead that became instrumental in their victory finally.
