Rangpur Riders (RAN) and Sylhet Strikers (SYL) are eager to bounce back from their opening game losses in BPL 2024. Despite notable performances by Mohammad Mithun and Zakir Hasan for Sylhet, their bowling trio—Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Nazmul Islam, and Benny Howell—struggled, conceding ten or more runs per over in a defeat to Chattogram Challengers by seven wickets.
Rangpur faced batting struggles in the previous match, despite efforts from Shamim Hossain and Mehidy Hasan. Their total wasn’t defendable, but bowlers Shakib Al Hasan and Hasan Murad impressed, each securing two wickets. The team needs to regroup and focus on improving their batting performance for upcoming matches.
