Choosing to bat first, Rangpur scored a respectable total of 158/5 in their 20 overs. Iftikhar Ahmed was the rock at the crease, with 41 of 32 deliveries played with controlled stroke play. Soumya Sarkar gave valuable top-order support with 36 from 28 deliveries. Nurul Hasan, the skipper and wicketkeeper, played an aggressive cameo of 34 from just 18 balls to lift the total towards the end. Despite some tidy spells from Dubai’s bowlers—particularly Shakib Al Hasan (1/16 in 4 overs) and Qais Ahmad (1/28)—Rangpur found boundaries at key moments. Rohan Mustafa picked up a wicket in his solitary over, but the bowlers couldn’t stop Rangpur from reaching a competitive total.

Sanjay Krishnamurthy chipped in with a useful 27 off 22, while Dominic Drakes added late fireworks with 22 from 16 balls. However, consistent strikes from Rangpur’s bowlers kept the pressure on. Saif Hassan was the standout performer with the ball, grabbing 3/20 in 3 overs, while Khaled Ahmed (2/14) and Rakibul Hasan (1/16) supported brilliantly. Dubai lost their final wicket in the 20th over, bowled out for 150 in 19.2 overs—just 8 runs short.
Rangpur Riders are still undefeated in the tournament after this victory, moving to the top of the GSL 2025 points table; they look in a strong position to defend their title.
