Legends of Rupganj came off the back of a sound win against Mohammedan in the last game. Today, as Prime Ban won the toss and elected to field first, Rupganj found themselves in a spot of bother after losing two wickets with just 9 runs on board.

Salauddin Pappu and Avishek Mitra could only score a run each as Shariful Islam and Delwar Hossain scalped them, respectively. After that, Abdul Mazid and Sami Islam steadied the ship a bit when the latter fell prey to the fangs of Nahidul Islam.

And then came the best partnership of the innings. Abdul Mazid and Naeem Islam dug themselves in and built up a partnership worth 135 runs. Mazid, in particular, was fantastic as he scored 110 runs from 122 balls before losing his wicket to Delwar Hossain.

Meanwhile, Naeem Islam also completed his half-century, currently batting at 51 from 78 balls. He is accompanied by Tushar Imran, who has only just come on to bat. After 41.4 overs, Rupganj have piled up 190/5 and can mount a great score here.
