Tournament debutants Rupganj Tigers have sealed Super League berth as Bangladesh's Test stars have made their appearance at the 2022 Dhaka Premier League (DPL) on Pahela Baishakh, the first day of Bengali year 1429.

Abahani Limited vs Prime Bank Cricket Club at SBNCS, Mirpur

Bangladesh Test captain Mominul Haque played his first game of the season for Prime Bank but failed to make a mark as he made 15 off 34 in his side's 38-run defeat. For Abahani, Mahmudul Hasan Joy (21) and Litton Das (30) got starts but could not make it big.

With contributions from all first seven batters, Abahani put on 271/7. Hanuma Vihari top scored with 58 while skipper Mosaddek Hossain made 40. Mosaddek's run-out caused scenes at the ground after fans showed outrage over the decision, halting the play in the process.

Prime Bank did not have any telling score except for Mohammad Mithun, who struck his second List A hundred making 95-ball 103 runs with 8 fours and 5 sixes.
