Taskin Ahmed- (Source:@ScreenGrab)
In the ongoing match between Durbar Rajshahi and Chittagong Kings, the Rajshahi won the toss and opted to bat first. The decision did not go in their favour, as they lost an early wicket.
Notably, Taskin Ahmed striked again as he got rid of Parvez Emon for a silver duck. Ahmed is on a roll and in the form of his life as he registered the best bowling figures by a Bangladeshi bowler in T20 history after he took seven wickets in an innings.
In the ongoing match, Taskin bowled a short-pitched delivery that Emon look to pull it away, but fail to clear the fence and the fielder made no mistake at the boundary ropes. Watch the wicket here.
