Rangpur Riders jumped to second position in the league table with a dominant seven-wicket win against Chattogram Challengers in their last game. Haris Rauf and Rakibul Hasan took two wickets each to restrict the Challengers to just 132/8 and then Rahmanullah Gurbaz smashed 46 off 30 to chase the target in just 16 overs. A big win in the upcoming future will boost the Riders to the top of the table and secure a Qualifier 1 spot.
