Tamim Iqbal’s brilliant unbeaten knock of 141 runs in 61 deliveries helped Comilla Victorians secure their second Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) title on Friday. Chasing a target of 200 runs, Dhaka Dynamites fell short by 17 runs as they were restricted to 182/9. AdvertisingTamim’s 141, which is the second highest score in a T20 final, also featured 11 sixes and 10 fours. Even as his much-fancied teammates were struggling to put bat to ball on a tricky Mirpur wicket, Tamim was hitting the big ones at will. But Dynamites pushed Victorians on backfoot as Upul Tharanga and Rony Talukdar added 102-runs in 52 deliveries for the second wicket.
