Dhaka, 26 Oct  - Pacer Maruf Mridha claimed six wickets for 22 on his first-class cricket debut as Dhaka Metro found them in position of strength on Day 1 of their second game in the National Cricket League (NCL) against Rajshahi at BKSP-4 ground today.

Mridha came up with a gem of pace bowling to help Metro bowl out Rajshahi for just 77 in 28.2 overs. Metro reached 138-5 at stumps, leading by 61 runs.

No.10 batter Mohor Sheikh was the highest run-getter for Rajshahi with 19 in their completely disappointing outing. SM Meherob Hossain who made 13 was the only other batter to reach double digits.

Anisul Islam took 3-10 and Abu Haider Rony grabbed 1-40 to complement Maruf Mridha.

Shamsur Rahman Shuvo was batting on 37 and Tahjibul Islam on 12 after helping Metro into lead following a mini batting collapse.
