DHAKA, Nov 26, 2020 (BSS) — Gazi Group Chattogram won the toss and decided to bowl first against Beximco Dhaka in their first match of the Bangabandhu T20 Cup at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Thursday.

Chattogram is formed with some of the best players of the T20 format. Mohammad Mithun will lead the side which is bolstered by the likes of Mustafizur Rahman, Soumya Sarkar, Liton Das, Mosaddek Hossain Saikat, Mominul Haque and others.

Mohammad Mithun though is inexperienced as a leader but he hoped to make a winning start to the tournament.

Beximco Dhaka: Mushfiqur Rahim, Rubel Hossain, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Nasum Ahmed, Naim Sheikh, Akbar Ali, Yeasir Ali Rabbi, Sabbir Rahman, Mehedi Hasan Rana, Abu Haider Rony, Muktar Ali.
