After making a big splash on his debut in the NatWest T20 Blast in England, Sussex CCC's Mustafizur Rahman had an outing to forget as Surrey CCC defeated his side by six wickets at the Kennington Oval in London on Friday night.

The Fizz got his campaign off to a flying start with a four-wicket haul that helped the Sussex Sharks to a comfortable win over Essex. However, he went wicketless yesterday and conceded 31 runs in his 3.2 overs.

With the 20-year-old's variations and cunning always posing a threat to batsmen, Sussex would have been quietly confident heading into the last over needing to defend eight runs, but Mustafizur failed where he was expected to shine.

Chris Morris ran two off the first ball and with just six runs required off five balls, he blasted Fizz over the boundary to put the game to bed.

Sussex will now take on Gloucestershire on July 24 and Hampshire on July 27 in the Royal London One-Day Cup before facing Glamorgan in their last T20 Blast group stage tie on July 28.

ভোটের অধিকার আদায়ে জনগণকে রাস্তায় নামতে হবে: ফখরুল

‘যুবকরা এখনো জানে না ভোট কী। আমাদের আওয়ামী লীগের ভাইরা ভোটটা দিয়েছেন, বলে দিয়েছেন—তোরা আসিবার দরকার নাই, মুই দিয়ে দিনু। স্লোগান ছিল—আমার ভোট আমি দিব, তোমার ভোটও আমি দিব।’
