Fortune Barisal wicketkeeper-batter Mushfiqur Rahim became the second batsman in Bangladesh to hit 100 sixes in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). He became the owner of the record against Sylhet Strikers on Saturday. Tamim Iqbal, the captain of Mushfiq's team, made this feat as the first batsman three days ago.

However, Sylhet is confirmed to be out of the league after losing. Even if they win the remaining two matches, the last time finalists will not reach the play-offs.
