Dhaka Gladiators 168 for 6
Shakib 59*, Dilshan 49
Chittagong Kings 139 for 9
Nurul 43
Two aggressive knocks from Shakib Al Hasan and Tillakaratne Dilshan, and a fall down eight wickets for just 37 runs safe Dhaka Gladiators' 29 runs win over Chittagong Kings in Mirpur. This victory gave the Gladiators second place in the points table at the close of the league stages.
They struggled an early bluster after being put in to bat, when opener Joshua Cobb was removed cheaply in the second over. However, Dilshan leads steady the innings, with 66 runs partnership with Anamul Haque made 23. After Dilshan dismissed in the 12th over for 49 off 38 deliveries Shakib finished with 59 from 29 deliveries and put on 75 runs with Darren Stevens.
The Kings were in the challenge when Nurul Hasan and Marshall Ayub put on 72 runs for the second wicket in 48 deliveries. But spinners Mosharraf Hossain and Dilshan come back with two quick wickets each, and the Kings cannot able to recover. Six of the final seven batsmen scored in single digits, and they slipped from 92 for 1 to 129 for 9 in the one before the final over. Four bowlers claimed two wickets each.
This game did not hold much effect, however, with both sides are already in the final four spots.
