and he has sent down another full toss. Would you believe it? Bresnan has bowled a wide and three full tosses in the final over. This one is outside off again and has been flayed over mid-off for the winning boundary
Sylhet vs Rangpur, 31st match at Chattogram, Nov 28 2017 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Rangpur won by 4 wickets (with 2 balls remaining)
Game 1 on this Tuesday was a thriller, what will game 2 have in store? We will be live with that match's coverage very shortly, so be back for it. From here, this is all we have. Goodbye and thank you for joining us.
Nazmul Islam is Man of the Match for his 4-0-18-3.
"It was hearth-throbbing. It was tough, but the good thing is we got 10 points and we can now relax. It is very important to play well under pressure and for the boys to step up," says Rangpur captain Mashrafe Mortaza. Last five matches that we have won have all been very close."
"We were 10-15 short. Fletcher is a key player and Babar Azam is a good player and Bresnan closed it out well for us," says Sylhet captain Nasir Hossain.
The second half of the BPL has seen its share of thrillers and this is yet another addition to it. When Ziaur Rehman and Brendon McCullum were blasting it out of the park, it had seemed as though Rangpur would seal this off with plenty of time to spare. They were going at 12 an over at one point, but that's what wickets can do to a team in T20. Sylhet picked up four of them after breaking that second-wicket partnership. That meant it took a last-over six from Mashrafe Mortaza to ease the nerves before Nahidul Islam finished it off with a four.
A straight mid-on comes in now.
full toss and wide again, Mashrafe backs away and opens the face to point who fumbles and allows a single. Scores level
horrendous bowling. Wants the wide yorker and instead fires up a full toss and gift wraps it with all the width in the world for Mashrafe to walks across and launch it over long-on
very full, very wide, Mashrafe reaches out and skews it back to the bowler
takes it wide of the batsman and slows down the pace as well making Mashrafe reach out. Called wide but that's a marginal call
Bresnan to bowl the final over. He has eight to defend
backs away to a fuller ball and Tanvir fires it wide of the batsman and fuller still to prevent him from putting bat to ball. Good bowling under pressure
fuller ball, turned away to deep midwicket and they push back for the second as deep square leg runs to his left
dipping yorker, dug out to mid-off
short and wide, cut extremely hard and Kamrul Islam dives to his left to make the stop. Certain boundary saved there
slower ball, short of a length, tries to pull and gets hit on the rib cage
that is out of here. Mashrafe launches this one over cow corner and it has gone miles back into the stands. Slower bak-of-the-hand delivery. Mashrafe pummels it and gets the timing spot on as well. Terrific strike
short of a length, drags a haphazard pull over the bowler's head and they push back for a quick second. The keeper takes the bails off but the batsman is in this time. Needed a better throw, that was wayward
very full outside off, reaches out and slashes and gets a thickish outside edge that goes over gully and backward point
extremely full outside off, driven down to long-off
yorker outside the leg stump, dug out to the midwicket region. There is yes and no on the second run and Bopara is half way down before being sent back. The keeper shouts early enough for the throw to come at his end and he takes the stumps off even as Bopara desperately dives
yorker on the stumps, dug out to long-off
dropped. Again at long-on. Got to take these kind of catches at this level. Bopara goes for another loft over long-on and the fielder again has to come forward. He bends forward but simply can't catch the ball. This one was pretty straightforward honestly
short of good length, tries to pull with no room and gets an inside edge
