Bangladesh leg-spinner Rishad Hossain continues his rich vein of form in Big Bash League, guiding his side Hobart Hurricanes to a four-wicket win over Melbourne Renegades today at their home venue in Bellerive Oval in Hobart.
In this match, Rishad picked up two wickets for 34 runs in four overs but as usual gave the side an impetus in the middle overs, stifling Melbourne for runs.
Skipper Nathan Ellis also dazzled, ending with 3-30 as Melbourne managed to put up 162-9. Hobart, however, raced to the victory in 19 overs, reaching 163-6.
Matthew Wade led the charge in batting with 20 ball-43 not out. Rishad so far took eight wickets in five matches, second highest behind Tom Curran and Haris Rauf who had nine wickets.
The victory, however, propelled Hobart to second spot with eight points from five matches, reports BSS.
