The Super Stars remained at the bottom of the points table with just two points. Now they need to win the rest of their league matches to survive in the third edition of the highly popular Bangladesh Premier League.
The Riders, on the other hand, have been inconstant with their performance throughout the tournament. They lost their previous game against the Barisal Bulls on Thursday, according to bdnews24.
"We speak about adapting to conditions. We didn't do that [Thursday]. It wasn't a 170-wicket but we didn't play all that smartly unfortunately. It is disappointing with the amount of talent we have in our line-up. Another 10-15 runs could have been a big difference now in the end result," coach Shane Jurgensen said after the loss, according to The Dhaka Tribune.
Jurgensen also criticized his batsmen's approach during Thursday's match. "When you walk out there, it is bat against ball. You have to play and see it as it comes. We have to look at how we assess the pitch. Nature of T20 cricket is that you can lose the game in the first six overs. The team that makes the less mistakes wins the game in such a short game," he said.

Sylhet Super Stars:
