The left-handed opener, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, who earned a spot in the Champions Trophy squad, is in excellent form in the BPL. Through consistent performances, he has now become the tournament’s highest run scorer and the batter with the most sixes. His bat seems to be pouring runs, and those runs are coming in an aggressive manner.
Until yesterday, Enamul Haque Bijoy was the highest run scorer in the BPL. However, on Wednesday (January 22), during a match against Chittagong Kings for Dhaka Capitals, Liton Das overtook Bijoy by scoring 25 runs off 28 balls, taking his tally to 348 runs in 9 matches—3 runs more than Bijoy.
But surpassing everyone, Tanzid Tamim has now climbed to the top. With three half-centuries and one century in the last four matches, his total runs have reached 420 in 10 matches. Through his consistent performances, he seems to be out of reach for the others.
In today’s match, Tanzid played another fantastic knock. With his team winning, he remained unbeaten on 90 runs off 54 balls, including 7 sixes in his innings.
In this year’s BPL, Tanzid Tamim is also leading the race for the most sixes. He has hit 29 sixes in 10 matches, the most in the tournament so far. Following him is Pakistan’s Khushdil Shah, who has hit 23 sixes in 8 matches.
