Tamim, Gayle star as Chittagong Vikings thrash Rangpur Riders
Requested that field first in the mid-table conflict on Sunday, the Vikings limited the Riders to a not very impressive 124-6, on account of some precise rocking the bowling alley from Taskin Ahmed (25-2) and Mohammad Nabi (2-31) at the passing.
Playing his first match this version, Gayle (40 off 26 balls) then combined up in a definitive 70-run opening stand with Tamim (62 not out) to place Chittagong in control at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur.
The twosome started the pursuit on a wary note however it was not much sooner than they started to dismantle the playing with limits and sixes, much to the pleasure of the group who had been distinctly holding up to see the West Indian in real life.
The initial six overs represented only 30 keeps running with Tamim looking perilous. Yet, the Caribbean masterblaster then joined the demonstration and crushed two limits and four sixes as Chittagong included 40 in the following three overs.
Gayle fell skying a Shahid Afridi conveyance however Tamim proceeded. He pounded spinner Arafat Sunny for two limits and a six in progressive conveyances before putting Liam Dawson away for consecutive fours to wrap things up in style with four overs to save.
Prior, Chittagong bowlers were niggardly at the beginning, surrendering the principal limit in the fourth over.
Opener Soumya Sarkar, who topscored for Rangpur with 26, was solid before pacer Subashis Roy had him gotten. Taskin then experienced the doors of Mohammad Shahzad (21) and Mohammad Mithun (12) in the tenth over to hurt the Riders.
After skipper Naeem Islam resigned hurt on 3, Nabi handled another blow with the scalps of Shahid Afridi (13) and Dawson (14) in the sixteenth over.
Rangpur then came up short on steam and neglected to flame in the demise overs even with some fine rocking the bowling alley from Nabi and Taskin.
The win lifted Chittagong to third past their rivals on 10 focuses from nine matches however Rangpur are level with them on focuses having played a match less.
Dhaka Dynamites, who beat Barisal Bulls by four wickets toward the evening, lead the table with 12 focuses from nine matches, level on focuses with second-put Khulna Titans yet ahead on run rate.
