Earlier in the game, Rangpur Riders posted 162/5 in 20 overs after winning the toss and electing to bat. The openers laid a foundation with 49 runs, but the Guyana spinners took control in the middle overs, restricting runs and taking wickets. Kyle Mayers and Iftikhar Ahmed played a crucial role in the end, powering Rangpur to a competitive total. Three catches were dropped of Kyle Mayers and Iftikhar Ahmed, as the Riders managed to post 162 runs.
The Rangpur Riders' bowlers stepped up in the second half, breaking crucial partnerships to put the Warriors under pressure. Khaled Ahmed was the standout performer, picking up two wickets in the penultimate over that shifted the game's momentum. He was undoubtedly the pick of the bowlers for them. Azmatullah Omarzai and Tabraiz Shamsi were excellent as well as they picked up two wickets each.
What a thrilling match we've just witnessed! The Rangpur Riders have pulled off a stunning win, defeating the Guyana Amazon Warriors by 8 runs. The Warriors got off to a rocky start, losing Rahmanullah Gurbaz early on, but Johnson Charles and Moeen Ali brought some much-needed aggression to the crease. However, their promising partnership was short-lived, as both batters fell in quick succession, leaving the match delicately poised at the halfway stage.
