Amite Hits Third Double Ton as Dhaka Bag First Win

Amite Hasan etched his name deeper into domestic cricket history by striking his third first-class double century against Khulna in Cox's Bazar. Resuming the final day unbeaten on 171, the batter pushed on to finish with 201 not out from 335 deliveries, featuring 16 boundaries and two sixes. This milestone makes him the seventh Bangladeshi player to register three double hundreds in the format, marking his third consecutive season achieving the feat.

Following Amite's masterclass, Sylhet declared their innings at 632, placing immense pressure on Khulna. Despite Ashraful Hasan contributing 114 runs after his century on the previous day, Khulna managed to reach 199 for seven before the fourth-round fixture ended in a draw, with the opening day having been washed out by rain.

Meanwhile, Dhaka Division secured a comprehensive innings-and-103-run victory over Rajshahi to register their first win of the campaign. Resuming their second innings on the final day at 215 for five, Rajshahi were bundled out for 256 in just 11.3 overs.

Sabbir Rahman, who was overnight on 64, fell in the second over of the morning without adding to his score as Rajshahi lost their final four wickets for a mere 16 runs. The comprehensive triumph earned Dhaka eight points along with a bonus point, lifting their tally to 15 points and second place in the standings.

Elsewhere, Chattogram's Shah Paran struck a blistering unbeaten 163 against Mymensingh in Bogura to record his maiden first-class century. Batting at number seven, Paran hammered 11 fours and 12 sixes in a 166-ball knock before Chattogram declared at 599, though poor light forced a draw with Mymensingh struggling at 61 for five.

The encounter between Barishal and Rangpur in Sylhet also concluded in a stalemate. Rangpur reached 288 for five in their second innings, anchored by opening batter Mim Mosaddeq with 121 and Nabin Islam with 104 as both registered their second first-class centuries.
