Sports Reporter
Chittagong and Khulna enjoyed run feasts unlike Rajshahi on the first day of their four-day National Cricket league matches at different venues across the country yesterday.
Masumuddowla (73) and Nazimuddin (86) missed their chances to reach the magical three figures but Faisal Hossain was still in sight of a hundred as Chittagong gave holders Dhaka a very tough day, scoring 334-6 at stumps at the Dhanmondi Cricket Stadium.
National all-rounder Manjantl Islam, however, made no mistake to achieve the mark as Khulna rode on his 108 to finish theday on 305-8 against lowly Barisal after a 68-run victory in the shorter version against the same side at the Khulna Divisional Stadium.
Away at the Shaheed Chandu Stadium in Bogra. pacer Hasibul Hossain and left-arm spinner Enamul Haque Jr ruled the day for Sylhet to restrict Rajshahi to 236-8. Sylhet lost their one-day game by seven wickets.

Munir gave the breakthrough by removing Chittagong captain Nafees Iqbal in the very third over.

Salahuddin scored a 73-ball 47 with eight fours and a six.
Ace left-arm spinner Rafique kept tire home team in contention after lunch when he trapped Masum lbw on 73 off 121 balls and dismissed Ehsanul Haque in successive balls as Chittagong stumbled to 153-4.
