Chattogram beat Sylhet convincingly in BBPL opener
Chattogram Challengers romped to a five-wicket victory against Sylhet Thunders in the opener of the ongoing Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League (BBPL) at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur today.
Imrul Kayes' 38-ball 61 and Chadwick Walton's unbeaten 30-ball 49 helped Chattogram chase down the 162 for four posted by Sylhet Thunders with five wickets and six balls to spare.
Earlier, Mohammad Mithun struck a 48-ball 84 -- his career best score in BPL -- laced with five sixes and four boundaries to propel his side to a challenging total.
Chattogram were in a spot of bother, losing four wickets for 64 runs inside nine overs. However, Imrul got going from the off, hitting some magnificent sixes to keep the momentum going before Walton finished off the job.
