Sylhet Sunrisers
Sylhet Sunrisers will lock horns with Fortune Barishal in the 24th Match of the Bangladesh Premier League as Sylhet International Cricket Stadium in Sylhet will host this fixture. They will be disappointed with the way things have gone against them in the tournament so far. Their team settled for very low totals and they lost their matches by huge margins. They managed just a single win out of the six matches they have played and currently sit at the bottom of the points table with three points.
They faced Chattogram Challengers in their last outing and suffered defeat by 16 runs. Batting first, Chattogram Challengers posted a mammoth target of 202 by the end of 20 overs. The Sunrisers bowlers lacked accuracy and gave away plenty of runs. Taskin Ahmed, Sohag Gazi, Mosaddek Hossain, Ravi Bopara, and Muktar Ali bagged a single scalp each but proved to be expensive at the same time.
In the chase, Anamul Haque mustered 78 off 47 while Colin Ingram hammered a 37 ball half-century. But after the dismissal of these two, there was no batter who could back the team and wickets kept falling at regular intervals. Sylhet Sunrisers managed to reach a total of 186 runs by the end of 20 overs and fell short of 16 runs as the required run rate kept creeping upon them.
