Khulna bats first against Rajshahi in Bangabandhu T20 Cup
DHAKA, Nov 26, 2020 (BSS) – Gemcon Khulna captain Mahmudullah Riyad won the
toss and elected to bat first against Minister Group Rajshahi in their second
game of the Bangabandhu T20 Cup at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on
Thursday.
Khulna who achieved a hard-fought four-wicket victory in the first game
against Fortune Barishal thanks to Ariful Haque’s late charge, brought up one
change to the side with leg-spinner Rishad Hossain replacing pace bowler
Hasan Mahmud.
Minister Group Rajshahi also won their first game against Beximco Dhaka by
two runs after their off-spinner Mahedi Hasan defended nine runs in the last
over.
Rajshahi, however, fielded an unchanged side in a bid to keep their winning
spree.
