Brothers scored 221 for 6 in their share of 50 overs and later dismissed Biman for 181 in 44.2 overs to finish their campaign on a winning note.
At the Dhanmondi Cricket Stadium, Indira Road KC registered a 41-run victory over Young Pegasus to finish on eight points.
Indira Road made 159 before being all out in 49.5 overs after deciding to bat while Young Pegasus were bundled out for 118 runs in 35.3 overs.
In the day's other match, Uttara SC conceded a five-wicket defeat to Orient SC at the Fatullah Cricket Stadium to be placed at the bottom.
