Kings win by 5 wickets against Sixers
Rajshahi Kings won by 5 wickets against Sylhet Sixers in the 38th match of Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Wednesday.
Rajshahi Kings chased down the target of 190 runs in 18 overs set by Sylhet Sixers.
Earlier, Sixers won the toss and decided to bat first and scored 189 runs in 20 overs.
The Kings finished their 12 matches of the league stage of the BPL winning six of them. Now they have to keep an eye on Dhaka Dynamites' last two matches. If they lose both of the matches, the Kings will qualify for the four-team playoffs. But if the Dynamites win one and lose one, the team with a better run rate will go through. Or if the Dynamites win their remaining two matches, the Kings will be eliminated.
While replying to the total of 189, the Kings finished the game with 12 balls to play. Along with Evans (76 off 36), Johnson Charles (39) and Ryan ten Doeschate (42) also contributed for the Kings.
Sohail Tanvir and Sixers captain Alok Kapali took two wickets each while Taskin Ahmed bagged one.
