At the halfway stage, a lot of us thought that 158 was a good total to defend on this pitch. Mickey Arthur, coach of Dhaka, thought, considering the state of the pitch, that it was a winning total. As much as Lewis played brilliantly, it would be fair to say that the bowlers of Dhaka let their team down and while batting their inability to rotate the strike cost them a few runs.
Barisal Bulls move to the top of the points table after the win and Gayle is yet to play for them
Quotes from the presentation:
Kumar Sangakkara: 158 was pretty good. We should've got a few more runs, a few wickets pegged us back. When someone bats like Lewis, there is little bowlers can do. It's about playing well and executing well. We will pick ourselves and come back tomorrow
Mahmudullah: We know how Lewis bats. He hits the ball for a few sixes in the nets. Rony batted well with him. Bowlers did well and put the pressure on their batsmen. Everything went well for us. I had a chat with Rony on what was expected of him
Evin Lewis is the Man of the match: I went out there and backed myself. I think the pitch was decent. Our slower bowlers did well. Chris Gayle is my idol. It was ideal that Rony took the pressure off me and we had a good partnership.
Thanks from all of us here and please do join us for the games tomorrow. Till then it's good night from all of us here

Mustafizur to Lewis, 1 run
defends it to the leg side and sets off for a quick single. He runs, drops his bat, runs further, leaps and punches the air. It's a special century for him. A very good knock. First hundred of this edition of Bangladesh Premier league. Pulls and late cuts dotted the innings

Mustafizur to Lewis, no run
good length ball on the off stump. Lewis defends and gets an inside edge back onto the pitch. He seems to be suffering from 'Shaunmarshitis' - a bout of nervousness close to a fifty or hundred

Farhad to Lewis, 1 run
comes forward and drives it to sweeper cover. For some strange reason he thinks there is a couple available. Mehedi shouts 'no', at least 4 times before Lewis stops. If the throw was at the bowler's end it could've been exciting

Mustafizur to Lewis, 2 runs
short and wide outside the off stump. Lewis moves across and drives it to point. A poor effort by the fielder there allows Lewis a couple. Couple of runs where there were none. Sanga must be an angry man today and the players might be in for a long meeting after the game
