That's it from here, do join us tomorrow from another cracking double-header. Cheers.

Mashrafe Mortaza - It was pretty good wicket, we scored 50 in five overs and we lost it in middle overs. T20 is all about momentum, hopefully we play it better.

Shakib - I think we played the perfect game. We had a decent plan, keeping wickets till the end and Jahurul did that. Spinners were getting some help, also we decided to bowl more spin and we bowled it good areas.

What a turn around it was. Chasing 153, Imrul set the tone early on smacking 38 in 24 deliveries. Victorians misread the script in the middle overs and left way too much for the final quarter. Perera after bowling an awful first over came back in strongly and bagged three wickets. Spinners bowled well in tandem and choked the Victorians. Well they have themselves to blame. Reckless shots, swung their bats like swords and eventfully fell on the same. With this win Rangpur Riders sit on top of the table.
