BPL: Razzak helps Rangpur to 7-run win

Khulna: Brad Hodge and Sabbir Rahman's blitzkreig wasn't enough as Barisal Burners fell 7 runs short to give Rangpur Riders their second win in three games in the Bangladesh Premier league on Wednesday.

Chasing 175 to win, Hodge [58 off 38 balls] kept Barisal in the hunt even as they were reduced to 48 for 4 in the 9th over. The Australian then added 59 runs with Rahman [69 off 35 balls] to put the run-chase back on track but Abdur Razzak's spell of 4 for 33 ensured a narrow win for Rangpur in the last over.

Barisal needed 14 to win off the last over but got all out off the fourth ball when Razzak dismissed Sabbir.
