10pm Comilla's captain Tamim punches the air in delight. They have now moved to the top of the table with this 12-run victory. Pollard and Mosaddek made a fist of the 168 chase but the variations from Bravo, Hasan, and Saif were too much to overcome. We will have more on the Cooper incident soon. Do stick around with us. I will also bring you the presentation shortly.

Shakib: 167, given the batting order we had, we could have chased it eight out of ten times. But their bowlers never let us take easy boundaries. We have two more important games left, and if we do well, we will be alright.

Tamim: We should have scored at least 180, if not 200. Believing we can defend the total shows our character.

DJ Bravo, Man of the Match : It was a great team effort. At the halfway stage, we believed we win the game. Yeah, we're happy with the win. It is not an easy thing to bowl when the ball is wet. Games like these brings the best out of me, and I enjoy bowling somebody like Pollard. Cooper is a big man, and my knee is strapped up. I have a couple of days to recover.

That rounds out the Chittagong leg of the BPL. Hope you enjoyed our coverage as much as we did bringing it to you. Until next time, goodbye and good night

Sydee: "So , the equation for semis becomes quite interesting after this match . If Dhaka loses both of their upcoming matches and RK wins both , Dhaka will be out of the tournament . This BPL has shown us that 'Morning shows the day ' is not right always . SS won first 3 but they are almost out . "

Isam has more on the Cooper incident: "It looked like Cooper said no to Tamim's offer to continue batting, and only continued when the Dhaka coach Khaled Mahmud told him to when they briefly conversed near the boundary line."

Nayeem: "Real sporting gesture by Tamim by calling back Cooper, hats off to Tamim."

Bravo to Cooper, no run, Oooh, what's happening here? All action. All drama. Man down - DJ Bravo is down. Has Cooper been run out? He is waiting at the edge of the boundary. Tamim walks all the way upto Cooper and has a chat with him. Tamim reverses the run-out decision. Cooper, having walked all the way back, returns to the middle. The fourth umpire intervenes as well. Cooper backs away outside leg, Bravo chases him with a chest-high short ball. Pings the gloves and rolls behind to the keeper. Cooper sets off for a single but in the process he collides with Bravo who tumbles onto the ground. Cooper was concerned about Bravo and did not attempt to return to the safety of the crease. Liton removes a glove and hits the stumps, but Cooper has been called back ultimately. Great sportsmanship from Tamim. #Scenes in Chittagong

Bravo to Pollard, OUT, Bravo wins the battle and unfurls the snazzy moves. He's a champyaaan! Pollard holes out to Mire at deep midwicket. Slower legcutter, finishes on the leg stump, Bravo aims a pull against this short ball but only drags a catch to the sub fielder. Mire did well to dive forward and track it down. Bravo gets Pollard and all but snuffs out the chase

Hasan Ali to Mosaddek Hossain, OUT, Horrid mix-up. Both Mosaddek are Pollard are near the keeper's end. There wasn't a run there. Mosaddek backed away outside leg, the bowler followed him and cramped him up for room. Punched weakly to cover. Pollard wants the strike, Mosaddek isn't interested. The throw is to the bowler's end and Mosaddek has to go. The asking rate has shot up to nearly 15
