[VIDEOS/PICTURES] Comilla Victorians crowned champions of Bangladesh Premier League 2019

COMILLA 237/5 (20.0 Ovs) CRR: 11.85
Innings Break

Afridi 1 run.
 
Comilla has shown their might today. They have a strong side, with Thisara in the form of his life, there’s Afridi there when he comes of can score quickly. At the top there’s Tamim and Lewis who just smashed another ton in the BPL.

Comilla Vcitorians 237. Two short of the highest in BPL history.

So many 200s this BPL. Has there been more 200 scores in a single reason in IPL? Or any other leagues.

I reckon Rangpur Riders v Comilla Victorians will be a mega final. Both teams have big players.
 
Sylhet Sixers will need favours from others. Still have a chance to go through to the play-offs.
 
No matchfit junaid khan today... doesn’t he play for the titans

AB Devilliers. 100 off 50 balls. What a class player! And Hales with 85, another big one by him. Rangpur Riders cruised to the win beating a good side Dhaka Dynamites with such ease by 8 wickets.

Riders favourites to win BPL. Comilla look good too.
 
Afridi bowling excellent as always.

Close game!

COMILLA 127 (20.0 Ovs), DHAKA 126/9 (20.0 Ovs)

Comilla Victorians won by 1 run

Afridi and Wahab with one wicket each.

Afridi 18 runs, Wahab 16.
 
Wahab was pretty good in this match too.He was bowling fast and was in great rhythm. He is definitely better than usman khan and junaid trundler khan.He should be in world cup squad as he was the best bowler in the previous world cup he can replicate that once again.
 
Mohammad Nawaz in good batting form -

Mohammad Nawaz c Nayeem b Viljoen 34(19)

SYL 153/4 (18.3 Ovs) CRR: 8.27
Chittagong Vikings opt to bowl
 
Afridi bowling offspin lol, still innovating like he's young, its gonna be a sad moment when he leaves.
 
Junaid Khan last three games:
- 4 overs 48 runs
- Not played
- 2 overs 20 runs
 
Capture.JPG

So the final 4 decided - Junaid Khan and Sohail Tanvirs are done for BPL
 
why Afridi's name is not on the list for upcoming qualifier? he didn't play last match either.. isn't he available?

Thishara should have been sent early ahead of Imrul. Imrul made 17 of 21 balls, what a poor knock that is ! Sending Thishara/Afridi would have added at least 15 more on the scorecard. Horrific move by the Vics. But splendid knock of 141* from Tamim. 199, they would believe that's enough.

Someone could’ve leasr opened a final match thread.

What an amazing innings by Tamim.

Comilla could have and should’ve got more. Least 220. Why the heck the sent Imrul ahead of Thisara and Afridi.

I want Comilla to win. Don’t want Dhaka to win a 3rd in total. But the chase been great so far. Talukdar is playing a gem. BCB needs to consider him for T20s he has been doing fine with great SR. Miles better than Soumya Sarkar in the t20 format.
 
Pollard out !

Dhaka Dynamites blown it. The had the RRR under control till the 12th over!

I’m happy if DD don’t win. Dhakaites will get more big headed winning 3 or 4 BPL’s in total. Comilla Victorians has come and bridged the gap. Otherwise Dhaka always has the best squad. This BPL CV has the best squad and better XI.
 
CV WON!!

Congratulations Comilla Victorians.
Congrats Tamim on a fantastic innings. Best of his T20 career across all, Domestic and International T20s.
 
Rony Talukdar should be tried in that number 7 role as a finisher or could be tried as an opener with Tamim. Destroyed Liton, Saumya, and Sabbir in BPL 2019.

last game 3 overs 23 runs

Blatantly lying.

Last 3 games,

3 - 0 - 23 - 0

4 - 0 - 48 - 1 (worst match for him in the tourney, bowled as fifth bowler for the team probably in the death overs)

4 - 0 - 28 - 1




So one bad game but you with a lot of craft tried to present it as a garbage three games on the trot. Unfortunately for you I was on hand to see that your blatant lying does not get very far. Agenda driven posters.
 
So Tamim finally won BPL. Good for him. Read somewhere that this was his first final.

Of his teams last four games he missed one. I started following his performance after his first game for his team where allegedly some grave injustice has been done
