Imran Ali took three wickets while Abu Jayed picked up two wickets. Sylhet responded firmly, with Sayem Alam scoring his maiden first-class century. His 133 and half-centuries from elder brother Rajin Saleh and Alok Kapali helped Sylhet to take a 256-run lead.

Dhaka then made 269 in the second innings, with Raqibul Hasan making 54. Jayed and Nasum Ahmed took four wickets each. Sylhet lost one wicket in their chase of 14 runs. Sayem was named Man of the Match for his century.
