Dhaka Dynamites defeated Chittagong Vikings in the eliminator by 6 wickets. Bowling first, Sunil Narine spun his web to restrict Vikings at 135 taking four wicket-haul and later gave a good start to the team scoring 31 runs in just 16 balls and was supported by Upul Tharanga who scored 52 runs. They will hope to continue the momentum and defeat Rangpur Riders tomorrow and enter the finale of BPL’19.

Defending champions Rangpur Riders lost the Qualifier 1 to Comilla Victorians by 8 wickets. Handy knocks from Chris Gayle and Rilee Rossouw along with a quick cameo of 53* runs from Benny Howell led them to a good total of 165 but failed to defend it due to ordinary display from their bowlers.
