Rarities
Rajshahi Kings were slapped with a five-run penalty after skipper Mehedi Hasan Miraz was guilty of 'fake fielding' against Rangpur Riders yesterday. The incident took place in the 12th over of Rangpur's innings bowled by Mehedi, when the off-spinner darted towards square leg and put in a slide despite the ball having already passed him. Due to Mehedi's intention to dupe the batsmen into not taking the second run the on-field umpire decided to give penalise Rajshahi. Mehedi admitted his mistake during the post-match briefing and said: "Yes, I knew the rule and I admit the mistake and I hope I won't repeat that again.
