That is all from here. Time for me (Sourabh Agrawal) to sign off on behalf of my co-commentators Pritam Dey, Ninaad Dixit, and scorer Raju Khariya. Take care!
Thisara Perera (Player Of The Match & Dhaka Capitals Captain): "I'm so happy, after so losing so many we needed this win. We never know, if we win the next three, 10 points, we never know. Cricket is a gentlemen's game, it was a lovely game.
If you see the first half, it was a tough wicket and we kept wickets in hand. Then, later on we knew about the powerhouse, we did our job. As a bowling unit too, we hit the simple lines and length and did our job.
I told my boys that if someone cam stay in the middle for a while, it is very difficult to get them out. Me and Litton got an 80-90 runs partnership, we caught up with everything.
As an all-rounder I am very happy with my performance."

Ariful Haque (Sylhet Strikers Captain): "Absolutely. We required a lot of boundaries in the death overs. When the asking rate creeps up over 16-17, it is always difficult to chase it down.
No, when you see that, when Jones and Rony were batting at the middle, things were under control but the partnership was broken at the wrong time which costed us a lot.
First of all, our bowling side needs to improve. Our top order needs to score runs as well so we need to look into these things.
Well in the last over, we required around 20 runs, we gave our best but unfortunately failed to get over the line."

Time for the Post-Match Presentation!
17:04 Local Time, 16:34 IST: Dhaka Capitals hold their nerves and eek out a close 6-run victory against Sylhet Strikers in what was a thrilling encounter and as a result both the teams swap places at the bottom of the table with the Strikers slipping to the bottom of the table now.
This win is just the second one for the Capitals in 9 games while Strikers succumb to their sixth loss in 8 games making their way forward really really tough now.
It was a high-scoring encounter as is most often the case in Chittagong with bat dominating the ball. Dhaka Capitals got to 196 on the back of a brilliant 70-run knock from Litton Das who continued his good form with the bat but more importantly it was the fireworks that he provided with skipper Thisara Perera as the duo butchered the bowlers in the death ramping up 56 off the last 3 overs in what was a sensational display.
Chasing 197, Sylhet needed a good start but they did not exactly get that as Munsey and Zakir Hasan departed early and they were down inside the first 5 overs. However, Rony Talukdar looked to be in brilliant touch and he was joined by USA's Aaron Jones.
The duo put up a much needed partnership with Rony doing the bulk of the scoring as he got to his fifty. Aaron Jones was looking scratchy going at around a run a ball at a stage but then got going with a few hits. Just as they started to go together, Perera struck and broke the partnership. A couple of overs later Rony also departed to the same bowler with the Strikers needing more than 14 an over in the last 5.
Sylhet skipper Ariful and Jaker Ali played some big shots in the end but there was simply too much to be done for them and eventually the pressure got to them and they succumbed leading to a Dhaka Capitals win.
