TEAMS PREVIEW
Biratnagar Kings Preview
Biratnagar Kings head into the contest on the back of a disappointing nine-wicket defeat against Kathmandu Gorkhas. Batting first, they were bowled out for just 83 runs, with Kathmandu comfortably chasing down the target in 10.1 overs. It was a poor performance from their batting unit, which failed to build partnerships or put up a competitive total.
Biratnagar Kings have had a mixed campaign, winning two and losing three of their five matches. They are currently placed fifth in the standings with four points. Their victories came against Sudurpaschim Royals and Janakpur Bolts, but consecutive defeats against Karnali Yaks and Kathmandu Gorkhas have affected their momentum.
Lokesh Bam has been their leading run-scorer, accumulating 194 runs in five innings at an average of 38.80 and a strike rate of 154.00. Andre Russell has also made valuable contributions with 144 runs at a strike rate of 189.50, while Imran Sheikh has scored 100 runs at a strike rate of 116.30.
With the ball, Angelo Mathews has been their leading wicket-taker, claiming seven wickets in five matches at a bowling strike rate of 9.4. Russell has also picked up six wickets at a strike rate of 13.00. These players will be important to Biratnagar's hopes of returning to winning ways.
Biratnagar Kings Predicted Playing XI:
Imran Sheikh, Lokesh Bam (wk), Shehan Jayasuriya, Angelo Mathews, Andre Russell, Shubham Ranjane, Basir Ahamad, Narayan Joshi, Rupesh Singh, Sandeep Lamichhane (c) and Aprajit Poudel.

Pokhara Avengers Preview
Pokhara Avengers enter the weekday fixture against Biratnagar Kings on the back of a convincing 63-run victory over Karnali Yaks in their previous match. Batting first, they posted an imposing total of 217/3, with Yuvraj Samra leading the charge with a brilliant 102 off 48 balls. Their bowlers then delivered a disciplined performance to restrict Karnali Yaks to 154 runs, securing their first victory of the season.
Pokhara Avengers have endured a difficult campaign, losing their first four matches before finally opening their account against Karnali Yaks. They have two points from five matches and remain in the lower half of the standings. Their batting unit has shown glimpses of its potential, but a lack of consistency has hurt their chances in the competition.
Kushal Bhurtel has been their leading run-scorer, accumulating 136 runs in five innings at a strike rate of 132.00. Yuvraj Samra has made an impressive impact, scoring 121 runs in two innings at a strike rate of 195.20, including a match-winning century in the previous game.
With the ball, Bipin Khatri has been their leading wicket-taker, claiming six wickets in five matches at an average of 20.17. Mehidy Hasan has also picked up five wickets at an average of 27.60, while Shakib Al Hasan has claimed four wickets in three matches at an average of 11.25 and a strike rate of 15.00.
