Skipper David Warner lead the way for the Sixers but it was also Afif Hossain, his batting partner at the other end, who really gave Sylhet the momentum for a big score as they posted 168 for the loss of five wickets.

For Sabbir Rahman, it was another opportunity to impress the national selectors but he once again fell to a low score.

Vikings were celebrating as Sylhet were three down for just 6 runs.

Afif played freely during his 28-ball 45, wresting momentum back from Chittagong after the early loss of wickets.

The 71-run partnership between Afif and Warner laid the foundation for a big score.
