Gone and it's all over It was slow, short, and wide. Slashes hard but top edges to cover who takes an easy catch on the circle
Victorians vs Khulna, 27th Match at Dhaka, BPL, Feb 11 2022 - Match Result
Thank you for tuning in, hope you enjoyed our coverage. This is Ekanth, signing off for now on behalf of my fellow commentator, Rashad Mahbub, and our scorer, Ranjith P.
Comilla and Khulna will face each other again tomorrow. For today, there is another match coming up in a few minutes. it is Barishal vs Dhaka from Mirpur, which will be starting at 6:30 pm BDT. You can follow our live coverage of that game here
With that, Comilla and Barishal have confirmed their places in the Playoffs
Moeen Ali is the Player of the Match for his 75 off 35 with a four and nine sixes along with a tight spell of 4-0-2-20
Both teams came in with the intent to score with the bat and lost wickets trying to sustain that momentum. Comilla found Moeen Ali, who smoked it all over to turn set up a score at least 15-20 runs over par. Khulna got a grand start in the first over thanks to Andre Fletcher but Mustafizur fizzed with two wickets in two balls and fizzled out the opposition. Wickets fell at a regular interval and the runs never came for Khulna as they collapsed and fell well short of the target.
5:05 pm In the end, Comilla get a comprehensive 65-run win over Khulna to take their tally to 13 points and get on par with Barishal, who have a game coming up later in the day, in terms of points. This is the biggest victory in terms of margins, beating Comilla's 63 run over Barishal earlier in the season
Good length ball, bottom edges a cut and it stays in the square at cover
Short on leg stump, it sits up and he whacks it over cow corner nonchalantly for a no-look six
The final over, to be bowled almost as a formality, starts as Islam comes around the wicket
Another good yorker on the stumps, turned to deep backward square for a single
Attempts a yorker outside off, hits the mark but the extended bat gets an inside edge and it goes to square leg
Full and wide, left alone
Length ball, inside edges the defence but it goes to the vacant off side
Length ball outside off, guided with an open face to deep square point
Slip in place
Bowled him! Back of a length ball and Perera misses a heave over leg and it hits the top of the stumps as the bails fly all over. He never looked set and did not get support and finally perished
That was a lucrative over for Khulna, 15 off it. Too little too late but it was better than the previous overs
Full outside off, takes his front leg out the way and smacks it to long on on a few bounces. Didn't connect but he will take the single
Around the wicket
Full outside off and he's clobbered that over wide long on, he's picked up the pace and the length early and swung freely
Short on the body and it sat up, pulls it to deep mid wicket. It didn't come off the middle though
Good length ball outside off, toe edges a slog to long on, takes the single
In the slot and Perera connects a slog over cow corner for his first six
Length ball, keeps down though. Misses the slog pull and the keeper drops it too but it doesn't matter
Khulna has given up on the win and Perera has struggled to find the middle of the bat. It looks like Tanvir Islam is coming in for his first over
Full cutter outside off, it comes back in but is left by the batter
Length ball down the leg side, flicks the pad and beats the keeper to his left and goes to the long-leg fence
Length ball above off, pulled again to deep mid wicket. Mistimes and gets no elevation but takes a single this time
Good length ball on off, slogged to long on on the bounce. It was mistimed and they don't run
Length ball on the legs, pulled to deep mid wicket
