Commentary

That's all for now from the BPL. We will be back with more. Keep following Sportskeeda for more. Until next time, take care and be well. See you.
Imrul Kayes | Comilla captain: The winning momentum is always a positive for any side. Fantastic batting effort from Litton and other guys. We took our chances and it paid off. Very good teamwork and Naseem Shah was brilliant.
Khushdil Shah | Player of the Match: I want to thank the almighty for the back to back PotM awards. I'm glad to be contributing with both bat and ball. The plan was to bowl wicket to wicket as it was difficult to bat. Naseem Shah was wonderful and also the other bowlers were outstanding.
Nasir Hossain | Dhaka captain: We lost early wickets and could not build any partnerships in the middle. We started well with the ball but could not maintain the pressure. Still a few games to go, we will take the learning from this game and try to turn it around in the next one.
Match result: Comilla Victorians won by 60 runs.

Innings summary: Dhaka Dominators 104/9 in 20 overs

Usman Ghani 33 | Naseem Shah 4/12

Where do you start with Dhaka's batting in the chase? Shambolic would be a good word to use to describe that showing. Only 9 boundaries hit in the entire innings and they limped to 104 chasing 165.

There was no intent, no inclination nor was there any attempt at getting to the target. Nasir Hossain flopped today and the rest just gave up.

Naseem Shah - on his BPL debut recorded the best-ever figures for a debutant in the competition's history. He had a chance at taking a 6-fer too but failed to do so.

Naseem was fast, furious and Dhaka had no answers. Dhaka's chase should be a lesson in how not to bat when going after a chaseable score. 

Comilla though won't mind as they register their fourth win in a row, condemning their opponents to their 6th straight loss.

Do stay tuned for the post-match presentation...
