Mashrafe Mortaza key in Sylhet’s impressive start

Away from the controversies, new franchise Sylhet Strikers did all the running in the first week, winning all four of their matches. Mashrafe Mortaza, who has led three different franchises to four BPL titles, was key to the team’s success. He has been the team’s leading wicket-taker so far, with seven wickets in four games. Mohammad Amir, predictably, did well, but so did Rejaur Rahman who opened the tournament with a four-wicket haul.
