“There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics,” is a famous quote from American author and humourist Mark Twain that alludes to the concealing nature of statistics.

Opinion / Must the show go on?

The tragedy of the Bailey Road fire which snatched away the lives of four dozen people is hard to digest, even for Dhaka-ites. Many cultural programmes seemed insipid amidst the shadow of death that loomed over one of the capital’s cultural hubs – leading to the cancellation or postponement of some.

Mayers, Tamim guide Barishal to maiden BPL title

Fortune Barishal batter Kyle Mayers and Tamim Iqbal played blistering knocks to guide their side to a comfortable six-wicket win over defending champions Comilla Victorians in the final of the Bangladesh Premier League in Mirpur on Friday. 

Comilla’s record-extending fifth or Barishal’s first?

All the top players are available and both sides have winds in their sails, providing them the needed momentum going into the final.
