Chasing a daunting target, Rangpur found themselves needing 26 runs from the last six balls at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. With the pressure mounting, Sohan seized the moment, smashing two towering sixes—one to begin the over, and another to seal the win—while also dispatching a flurry of boundaries in between, leaving the crowd in awe.
His extraordinary finishing skills not only clinched the match but also secured Rangpur’s place in BPL history with the highest-ever successful chase in the final over. As Sohan celebrated by spinning his bat like a sword, it was a fitting symbol of the emotional swing from desperation to victory.
While Rangpur’s chase had initially faltered, with the required run rate climbing steadily, the Pakistani duo of Iftikhar Ahmed and Khushdil Shah had other plans. Their partnership, built on controlled aggression, brought Rangpur back into contention, narrowing the margin and setting the stage for Sohan's game-changing display.
Despite their impressive total, Barishal—led by captain Tamim Iqbal—were left to reflect on missed opportunities. This defeat marked their second loss to Rangpur in the tournament, after previously falling by eight wickets.
Barishal's bowlers crumbled under pressure in the final over, unable to halt Sohan's relentless assault. The defeat left them with six points from five matches, holding onto second place in the standings.
Meanwhile, Rangpur's flawless performance extended their unbeaten run to six matches, firmly cementing their position at the top of the table with 12 points. The win further reinforced their credentials as serious title contenders, showcasing both the depth and resilience of their squad.
Sohan's final-over heroics will undoubtedly go down as one of the most unforgettable moments in BPL history, as Rangpur continue their dominant surge towards the championship.
