November 30, 2025

 

Kathmandu – Karnali Yaks and Kathmandu Gorkhas are competing in today’s Nepal Premier League (NPL) match. At the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur, Karnali won the toss and opted to bat first.

Under the captaincy of Sompal Kami, Karnali have won only one out of their four matches in the ongoing tournament. With just two points, they are in sixth place. To remain in contention for the playoffs, today’s victory is crucial for them.

Kathmandu, led by Karan KC, are in third place with three wins from five matches. This game is equally important for Kathmandu in their bid to reach the playoffs.

In the tournament, Sudurpaschim Royals remain unbeaten and have already secured a playoff spot with five wins in five matches. Organized by the Cricket Association of Nepal, the tournament began on Mangsir 1 and features eight participating teams.
