Unfortunate Barishal lose to Dhaka

Fortune Barishal got Chris Gayle a day before their expectation but the arrival of the " universe boss" could not hand them another victory as they lost to Minister Dhaka by four wickets.

Gayle landed in Dhaka on Sunday, got lucky to be proven negative in two RT-PCR tests and took the field for Fortune Barishal on Monday noon.

He played an innings of 36 runs from 30 balls, hit three boundaries and two sixes before getting dismissed by mistiming a delivery from Isuru Udana where Mahmudullah took the catch at third-man.

Dwayne Bravo was not out on 33, the "champion" singer rescued the team and took them to 129-8 in 20 overs.

In reply, Dhaka has a horrible start. Tamim Iqbal after scoring back to back half-centuries was bowled for a duck by Shafiqul Islam, Mohammad Naim and Jahurul Islam were dazzaled by the pace or Alzarri Joseph, and Shafiqul stroke again by rattling the stamps of Mohammad Shahzad.

Dhaka lost four wickets for only 10 runs but Mahmudullah (47) along with Shuvagato Hom (29) and Andre Russel (31*) managed to take the team home with 15 balls to spare.
