Lowest total in BPL historyKhulna Titans were bundled out for just 44 in 10.4 overs against Rangpur Riders on Thursday at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur. This is the lowest ever total in the history of the Bangladesh Premier League Twenty20 so far. The previous lowest total belonged to Barisal Bulls who were skittled out for only 58 in 16 overs against Sylhet Super Stars in the third edition of the tournament last year. Shuvagata Hom’s 12 runs was the only double figure score for the Titans as all the batsmen were dismissed for single digits.

DHAKA TRIBUNESunny's three wickets for zero runsRangpur’s left-arm spinner Arafat Sunny stormed into the record books as he picked up three wickets from his 2.4 overs without giving a single run to register the best ever economy rate in the history of the BPL. He is the fifth bowler in the history of T20 cricket not to concede a run in an innings. However, Sunny bowled more than an over compared to Suresh Raina, Hasan Raza, Dinuka Hettiarachchi and Udit Patel, who all bowled less than an over to achieve the feat previously.
