Mahmudullah XI won the toss and decided to bowl against Najmul XI in the fourth match of the BCB President’s Cup at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur today.
The 50-over tournament remains evenly poised with all three teams having won one of the two matches played till now. The tournament has been a low scoring one as it saw only one team surpassing the 200-run mark when Mahedi Hasan’s blistering 57-ball 82 saw Tamim XI post 221 for nine and romp to an eventual 42-run victory against Najmul XI on Thursday.
Mushfiqur Rahim, playing for Najmul XI, became the first centurion of the tournament but his 109-ball 103 was not enough to see his side through.
Najmul XI had beaten Mahmudullah XI by four wickets when they met in the opener and will be looking to get a similar result today. Mahmudullah XI, who sealed a five-wicket victory against Tamim XI in their previous game, would want to pick up from where they had left.
