Rangpur emerged as the champions of the NCL T20, defeating Dhaka Metro by 5 wickets. Despite an early scare while chasing a modest target of 63 runs, Rangpur achieved the target in just 11.2 overs.

Chasing a low target of 63, Rangpur initially struggled but managed to score 14 runs without losing any wickets. However, they quickly found themselves in trouble, losing 4 wickets for just 18 runs after adding just 4 more runs to the total. Captain Akbar Ali was dismissed for a golden duck, and then a run-out saw Rangpur in a precarious position.

A 24-run partnership between Ariful Haque and Tanvir Haider for the fifth wicket steadied the ship. Ariful was dismissed for 14 by Rakibul Hasan, leaving Tanvir and Enamul Haque Anam to finish the job. Anam hit a boundary off Rakibul Hasan to seal the victory for Rangpur, remaining unbeaten on 14 runs from 9 balls, including 3 fours. Tanvir also stayed unbeaten on 8 runs from 20 balls.

Dhaka Metro’s Alis Al Islam took 2 wickets, while Abu Haider Rony and Rakibul Hasan each took 1 wicket.
