Mominul takes Barisal home

BlSHWAJIT Roy from Chittagong
Young Mominul Haque brought Khulna I Royal Bengals down to earth as Barisal I Burners snatched an exciting four-wicket I victory in the Bangladesh Premier League I (BPL) T20 at the Zohur Ahmed I
Chowdhury Stadium here yesterday.
The little left-hander scooped Dwayne Smith for a six over fine-leg as Barisal reached the winging target of 162 for the loss of six wickets with three balls to spare and brightened their semifinals chances with eight points from eight matches.
It was Khulna's first defeat in four matches in the port city and they remained on ten points from eight matches.
Barisal needed 18 runs from last two overs and Kabir Ali and Mominul managed eleven runs from the penultimate over of Nasir Hossain to turn the tables on them leaving seven runs to score from the last over of Smith.
Kabir managed one run from the first ball and after that Mominul failed to collect any run from the second, but finished the job in the third ball in style.
Mominul, who was dropped by wicketkeeper Niall O'Brien when on 26 and then by Marshal Ayub on 40, played a match-winning knock of 53 not out off 28 balls that contained three fours and four sixes.
Earlier, Khulna won the toss and decided to bat but wickets fell at regular intervals that restrained them from freeing their arms before number nine batsman Nazmul Hossain Milon showed his big-hitting abilities to score an unbeaten 42 off 31 balls. He hit two sixes and as many fours. Milon's innings helped them put up a fighting total of 161 runs for seven wickets.
Khulna fell in big trouble when Dwayne Smith and captain Shakib Al Hasan were dismissed for noughts after a flying start by Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Herschelle Gibbs.
Chanderpaul pulled his hamstring before retiring hurt for a 28-ball 33 that featured three boundaries while last match hero Nasir Hossain contributed 31 off 19 balls with four boundaries and a six.
