Commentary

That's it. Thank you for joining us! On behalf of my scorer Manish, I, Sidharth, say goodbye! Cheers!

Tamim Iqbal (Fortune Barishal Skipper): "A fantastic win. Shoaib Malik and Mehidy Hasan Miraz both batted well. We have to improve our death bowling. It wasn't an easy wicket to bat on. But we should have bowled well. We should have restricted them to 135."

Shoaib Malik (Player of the Match): "It's good to do well for the team, especially when needed. That's what experience is all about. Miraz (Mehidy Hasan) batted exceptionally well. He showed courage. Thankfully, our team didn't break under pressure."

Shoaib Malik is the Player of the Match

Anamul Haque (Khulna Tigers Skipper): "A fantastic match. Unfortunately, we were on the losing end. Credit to Shoaib Malik. We recovered well (in batting) in the last few overs. We didn't execute our plans with the ball in the last few overs. We would look to make a strong comeback."
