Otabek, Absar give Sheikh Jamal winning start

Three-time champions Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club got off to a winning start in the Bangladesh Premier League with a 2-1 win over title-hopefuls Chattogram Abahani at the Bangabandhu National Stadium yesterday. The Dhanmondi giants did not enjoy better ball possession or attack, but drove home the advantage after a slightly fortuitous goal towards the end of the first half.
