Comilla are on top despite the loss tonight, while Sylhet have come up from the bottom. Do join us for another double-header tomorrow. Until then, it's goodnight from all of us here. Cheers!

Ravi Bopara is the Player of the Match. "The wickets in Dhaka weren't ideal, and we didn't have the best preparation going into the competition. It is tough for overseas players to come in and start scoring immediately. Good thing is we finished on the winning side today. I thought this was a good wicket, quite better than what we've been playing on. The idea was to have one of us bat through, we've been guilty of not doing that in the past.

Mortaza: We were 15-20 short, because dew was going to play a part. Batsmen started well, but we lost momentum in the middle. Litton's return to form is a positive. Hopefully we'll bounce back.

Relief on Bopara's face. Mushfiqur is all smiles as well. Four wickets and a half-century for the England allrounder. Would have been really cruel if this would have ended in another loss. Mortaza, on the other hand, quickly goes up to Hider to console him. Four wickets to Rony in vain. We've witnessed another thriller in Chittagong. The crowd has certainly got its monies worth. Stay connected for the presentation

Abu Hider to Milon, SIX runs

what is the fuss about? Short ball, he clears his front leg and slaps it straight over the bowler's head. Bisects long-on and long-off. Game, set and match. Sylhet Super Stars are finally on the board.

Two new batsmen at the crease. Mortaza taking his time to adjust the field to his liking. Bopara looks quite nervous. Four losses in as many games for Sylhet. Which way is this headed?

Abu Hider to Jayasuriya, OUT

and there's another strike! Bowls it full and just a touch ahead of good length, he goes for an almighty heave but can only connect with the cool evening air as the off stump takes a beating. Wow, game on! Hider is doing a Tahir, his teammates are unable to stop him

Abu Hider to Bopara, OUT

takes his team to the door step of victory and throws it away. Flat-bats a shortish delivery straight to long-on. Is there another twist?

the confidence of this knock clearly showing as he walks across and flicks that one wide of long-on

Kulasekara to Hammad, OUT

one hit too many and he's perished in his quest to finish this early. Gets underneath that one but doesn't connect cleanly, came off the lower half of the bat and the long-on fielder Shuvagata Hom judges it well, runs in, keeps his eyes on the ball and takes it well. Too late though

Santokie to Hammad, FOUR runs

too short and he just rolls his wrists to pull, gets hold of it alright, but the fielder at deep square leg makes a mess of that. As easy as they come, but it bursts through his fingers and rolls into the boundary. If you're looking for a good word to describe that, poor would be a good place to start.

he's blasted that into Sylhet, I think. Gets down on one knee, underneath the line of the ball, and boom! Into the night sky. Terrific hit

Kulasekara to Mushfiqur, OUT

the full and straight ball has done the trick. Angled in from wide of the crease, Mushfiqur was looking to make room to play the stroke but was late on the ball as it comes back in, deflects off the pad and onto the stumps

Mushfiqur Rahim b Kulasekara 47 (31b 4x4 0x6 51m) SR: 151.61

slower and way too fuller, he just swipes it across the line and into the gap at deep midwicket

dabbed towards the bowler, Kula quickly gets across to prevent the single

Kulasekara to Mushfiqur, FOUR runs

buffet ball, really. Juicy full toss outside leg and he flicks that up and over the square leg fielder, couple of bounces into the boundary. Easy pickings, will put those away even in his sleep

Sameer: "Just goes to show what the Sylhet Super Stars were lacking so far - partnerships. And finally somebody stays there with Mushy."
