BPL 2024, Fortune Barishal vs Comilla Victorians: Full List of Awards
Kyle Mayers (Player of the Match): It was a good performance, I really enjoyed it. After being not been able to play much games in the last three months, I played one game in the SA20, and then one game in Australia and then came here. I’m very pleased this year for bowling four overs. Kudos to the captain and the management to make me feel comfortable from the beginning. I tried to be the best version of me and I’m happy.
Tamim Iqbal (Man of the Match and Fortune Barishal captain): I would like to call Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah, I would like to dedicate this trophy to them. Mushi did a massive job in the field, he made the field changes and it is Mushi’s trophy. Because I was named the captain, I get the credit.
