Khulna or Rajshahi?

Sports Reporter
Fortunes fluctuated heavily in the final round of the 9th National Cricket League yesterday as the fate of the title swung back Khulna's way with one day remaining in the four-day matches.
A dramatic finish on the final day of the all-important tenth round will decide the winners as the Rajshahi ship hit the bottom near the coast after dominating the first two days' proceedings against Dhaka.
Rajshahi, who began the final round One point behind contenders Khulna, faced a batting debacle but their title rivals fought back brilliantly in their second essay against Barisal to revive the hopes of clinching the first-class trophy.
After taking a 52-run first-innings lead, Rajshahi were reduced to 59 for seven in their second innings and another rescue act from two unbeaten batsmen Nayeem Islam and Mohammad Shahjada, the ton makers in the first innings, can only bring them back in contention.
Khulna improved their batting to set a stiff 302-run target for Barisal after the hosts made 325 in
the second innings at the Birshreshtha Shaheed Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium in Khulna. Barisal finished the day on 20 without loss.
At the Fatullah Stadium, the match was evenly poised as Chittagong will start chase of 237 runs for win in the second innings against Sylhet.
RAJSHAHI-DHAKA
Left-arm spinner Mosharraf Hossain snatched the advantage from Rajshahi after Nazmul Hossain Milon's brilliant 93 at the Mirpur Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium,
Mosharraf captured four wickets for nine runs in nine overs to further damage the Rajshahi second innings after new ball bowlers Mahbubul Alam and Mohammad Sharif started the carnage.
The visitors, who now have a 111 -run overall lead, will definitely look to Nayeem and Shahjada, who had associated in a 172-run eighth wicket stand in the first innings.
Earlier, a 79-run eighth wicket stand between Milon and Mosharraf helped Dhaka to score 313 after resuming the day on 132-4. Nazmul for another occasion fell victim in the nervous nineties as the hard hitter scored 93 off 154 balls with the help of four bound-
aries and as many sixes. Mosharraf contributed 34 off 70 balls with five fours.
KHULNA-BARISAL
Khulna bounced back with solid middle order show as they amassed 325 -- a much better effort from their first innings total of 193 -after resuming on 73-2.
Fariduddin top scored 61 off 136 balls which featured seven boundaries while captain Nahidul Haque added 52 off 80 deliveries with the help of eight fours and a six. Jamaluddin Babu chipped in with 140-ball48.
Hannan was batting on five and Nasiruddin Faruque remained not. out on 16 as Barisal batted five overs without any trouble.
SYLHET-CHITTAGONG
New ball pair Kamrul Islam and Tareq Aziz equally shared eight wickets to create an opportunity for Chittagong to finish the campaign with a high note.
But it could have been a much better story for Chittagong if Nabil Samad and Rashedur Rahman had not frustrated them during a 60-run stand for the last wicket as Sylhet recovered from 141-9 to 201 all out.
Nabil hit team highest 37 off 102
