DBR vs DC, BPL 2024-25 Preview

Durbar Rajshahi lost to defending champions Fortune Barishal in a high-scoring cracker in the opening match of the BPL 2024-25 season. Despite hauling 197-3 upfront courtesy of sparkling half-centuries from captain Anamul Haque and Yasir Ali, the Rajshahi bowlers failed to contain Barishal’s run-chase rampage in the latter half of the game. Among all Rajshahi bowlers, senior speedster Taskin Ahmed unfurled the spell of the innings with astonishing figures of 3-31 from his four overs. With a defeat upfront, it is imperative for Anamul Haque and co. to attain some winning momentum going ahead in the competition.

On the opening day of the competition, the Dhaka Capitals crashed to a huge 40-run defeat at the hands of Rangpur Riders. Chasing 192 for a win, the Capitals batters squandered away their sublime top-order start laid out by openers Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das. Even with the ball, only right-arm fast bowler Mukidul Islam maintained a reasonable economy rate with two wickets to his name. Fellow speedster Alauddin Babu also picked up three wickets in the innings, albeit during his expensive four-over spell.
