Tigers ODI side captain Mashrafe Bin Moratza has become the most wicket getter in one session of the List 'A' cricket in Bangladesh, reports UNB.

He captured 38 wickets in 15 matches, averaging 14.21 runs, in the 12-team Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League (DPDCL) -2018 to leapfrog the previous record of pace bowler Abu Hider Rony, who got 35 wickets in 16 matches, on average 18.42 runs, in the 2017 session for Gazi Group Cricketers.

Mashrafe set the record when his side Abahani Ltd edged close in to clinch the title of the DPDCL after a huge 127-run win against Khelaghar Samaj Kalyan Samity in the 4th round super-league match at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium at Mirpur in the city on Monday.

He needed one wicket more in the day's match against Khelaghar to cross the milestone and got three wickets conceding 32 runs in eight overs to set the new record.
