In Match 5 of the season for the 2025 Global Super League, Rangpur Riders edged out Hobart Hurricanes in a close 1-run win at the Providence Stadium in Guyana. Put in to bat, the Riders scored 151/6 in 20 overs, driven by an outstanding 67 off 42 from opener Kyle Mayers and a consistent 43 off 31 by Ibrahim Zadran. Despite a brilliant bowling effort from Usama Mir (3/15), Hobart was set a competitive target.

In reply, the Hurricanes came close but were ultimately bowled out for 150 in 20 overs, falling heartbreakingly short. Mohammad Nabi top-scored with 44 (36), and Ben McDermott added a quick 34 (19), but tight death bowling from Khaled Ahmed (4/26) and Iftikhar Ahmed (2/13) sealed the win for Rangpur.

With this win, Rangpur Riders are still undefeated in the competition and move to the top of the GSL 2025 points table with 4 points and a net run rate of +0.225. Hobart Hurricanes, with their first defeat, sit in the third position with 2 points.

HUR vs RAN Probable Winners:

The match between the Hobart Hurricanes and the Rangpur Riders promises to be exciting because both teams are in good shape and have recently won convincingly. Hobart, on the other hand, is heavily reliant on its top order, and if it fails, the team may struggle. Rangpur, on the other hand, does not have many star players, but they appear to have the right ones for this situation. We believe that the reigning champs have the advantage in the clash because of their superior bowling attack. Considering the team combination, Rangpur Riders is expected to win this match.
