Commentator: Ankur Dhawan
That's it from us here, but do tune in to our coverage of the second BPL match of the evening between Sylhet Sixers and Comilla Victorians.
5.15pm That ends a strange run chase. The Kings played a shot a ball when they had no need to, were largely circumspect when the required run-rate shot up and ran out of resources towards the end to fall short by a significant 25-run margin in a small run chase. Seldom do teams win so comfortably with 128 on the board, but through their spinners Mahmudullah and Taijul, who shared five wickets between them, and some mindless batting from the Kings who slipped to 32 for four in the powerplay and never recovered, Khulna Titans have earned their first win of the tournament.
