Excellent effort by the fielder! 69/113.1 Short, pulls to deep midwicket and GONE Fielder settles well near the boundary ropes and takes an easy catch 109/214.2 Full and slower, completely missed the line and length. Tried to play across but made a mess out of it 117/319.3 Length outside off, Riyad tries to smash it over mid wicket, didn't get the distance, WHAT A CATCH diving away to his right near the boundary area. Brilliant effort from the fielder to get rid of the danger man Riyad 176/614.6 Slower delivery, tried to work through short thirdman for a quick single, fielder hits the stumps at the keeper's end but Riyad is safe, then the ball went on to hit the non-striker's end.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 too close and too full to cut and he misses it, the off stump is uprooted. 8/17.6 fuller down the leg side, Fletcher looks to flick it fine, gets the edge and the keeper does well to take the catch to his left. 80/214.4 cheeky! Moves across to a full delivery and laps it around but finds the stumps, he has played on. 134/410.3 good short delivery and Mushfiqur flicks it and leading edge goes high in the air behind the wicket and the keeper catches it. 103/316.3 slower delivery hit in the air down the ground to long off and Shuvagata Hom takes the catch. Is there a twist in the tale. 153/5Extras11 (b 1, nb 1, w 9)TOTAL186/5 (19 Overs, RR: 9.78)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Tanzid Hasan, 1.2 ov), 2-80 (Andre Fletcher, 7.6 ov), 3-103 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 10.3 ov), 4-134 (Rony Talukdar, 14.4 ov), 5-153 (Yasir Ali, 16.3 ov)

All Match NewsTalukdar's 61, Russell's freak run out headline Khulna's triumph on BPL opening day
Tamim Iqbal's 50, and Dhaka's total of 183 for 6, proved insufficient
BPL 2022: Andre Russell run out as direct hit incredibly ricochets from one set of stumps to the other
Russell was ambling to his crease at the non-striker's end at that point, expecting the throw to arrive (only) at the striker's end
