The target is 186 runs. Comilla Victorians lost the first ball to chase. Shock at the start. But the shock is only as if this is the first time! Tawheed Hriday came to the crease. Liton Das's new companion. What he did next is unbelievable. The two of them made a pair of about 150 runs and took out the match easily!

Comilla faced Rangpur Riders on Monday (February 26) in the first qualifier. After losing the toss, Rangpur scored 185 runs for 6 wickets. The four-time champions booked their ticket to the final with 9 balls to chase.
Comilla chased such a big goal so easily? A look at the scorecard of the match will make it clear. A pair of 143 runs after losing wickets for zero runs. Hridiya played an innings of 64 runs off just 43 balls and the pair broke when they got out. By that time the match had slipped out of Rangpur's hands.
Did this pair with heart make the difference in the match? Faced with such questions at the press conference, the captain of Comilla Liton said that he had never had such a beautiful pair in his life! That is, this pair with the heart is the best of his life! Lytton said, "The best in my life... I have never batted with such a good partner. The way he batted was amazing. Looked good from Non Strike. More than that, one partner's job is to relieve the other partner. I think he gave me full relief to grow the game.
Hriday got out after fifty but Liton returned to take the team to the brink of victory. His highest score is 83 runs from his bat. Liton scored 57 balls with 9 fours and 4 sixes. He won the man of the match award. In the fifth over of the innings, Hriday started with 22 runs off Hasan Mahmud with 1 six 4 fours. After that, there was no looking back. At one end Hriday was blowing up, at the other end Lytton was playing slow. Lytton's run was 34 off 30 balls when Hriday got fifty off just 31 balls. But Lytton did not take long to get wide. Fifty off 38 balls.
Liton wants to maintain the continuity of this pair, 'Usually we don't chase big runs in T20. You can say one of the best from that point of view. Both are Bangladeshis. Both are national team players. Hopefully we can do it consistently.'
Comilla will face the winner of the second qualifier on March 1 in the final. Rangpur, who lost today, will face Fortune Barisal in the second qualifier on February 28. Barisal secured the second qualifier after defeating Chittagong. Who is Comilla's opponent in the final? Rangpur or Barisal? Have to wait two days!
