Sangakkara 75 keeps Sylhet winless

DHAKA: Sylhet Superstars' batting misfired again as they were crushed by Dhaka Dynamites by 34 runs. While Sylhet sunk to their fourth loss in a row, Dhaka joined Comilla Victorians and Rangpur Riders with three wins.

After days of low-scoring encounters, Mirpur had a full house and was treated to some scrumptious batting from Kumar Sangakkara who made 75 off 56 balls to lead Dhaka to 166. Sylhet then were rattled by regular strikes and were bundled out for 132 in 19.5 overs.

He isn't your run-of-the-mill T20 hitter but Sangakkara's mastery of accumulation meant that he was always going to thrive on a pitch where most batsmen have adopted a cautious approach.
