DHAKA, Dec 3, 2025 (BSS) - A fine century of Sohag Gazi was not enough to save 
Barishal Division from a 63-run defeat to Mymensingh in the sixth round game 
of the 27th National Cricket League (NCL) at Sylhet Academy ground today.

Chasing a victory target of 380, Barishal finally were bowled out for 316 
with Sohag Gazi hammering 102 off 149.

Barishal resumed the Day 4, the final day of the game on 108-4, still needing 
272 for a victory.

Zahiduzzaman and Tasamul Haque added 93 runs for the fourth wicket to lay a 
good platform after Barishal slumped to 23-4.

The partnership was broken when Tasamul who made 41 was trapped round out. 
Zahid followed him soon after making 80.

Sohag Gazi then rotated the scoreboard aggressively to keep Barishal in the 
hunt but when Asadullah Galib removed him, Barishal's defeat was ensured.

Electing to bat first, Mymensingh earlier put on 354 before being all out in 
the first innings and then took a handsome 137-run lead, bowling out Barishal 
for 217.

They, thereafter, declared the second innings on 242-9, setting Barishal a 
380 for a victory.

The victory, however, put Mymensingh in the second spot of the point table, 
just behind Sylhet.
