TEAMS PREVIEW
Nepal Preview
Nepal secured a convincing 66-run victory over the Hobart Hurricanes Academy, putting an end to their three-game losing streak. A strong batting performance saw them post a total of 180/7, with solid contributions from Kushal Bhurtel (27), Aasif Sheikh (29), and Aarif Sheikh (33), as well as a quickfire 25 from Lokesh Bam.
The star of the show, however, was bowler Nandan Yadav, who tore through the opposition's lineup with a magnificent five-wicket haul for just 17 runs, earning him the Player of the Match award. Backed up by Karan KC, Rijan Dhakal, Sandeep Lamichhane, and Kushal Bhurtel, who all chipped in with wickets, Nepal's bowlers ensured a comfortable win.
So far this season, Aasif Sheikh has been the top batter for Nepal with 121 runs. With the ball, Nandan Yadav has been exceptional, leading the attack with six wickets, while Sandeep Lamichhane has also taken eight wickets in four matches.
Nepal Predicted Playing XI:

Melbourne Renegades Academy Preview
The Melbourne Renegades Academy suffered a 73-run defeat to the Pakistan Shaheens, bringing their two-match winning streak to an end. Chasing a target of 179, the Renegades' batting lineup collapsed, managing only 105 runs.
Josh Brown top-scored with 36, but a lack of significant partnerships proved costly. Their bowlers also struggled to contain the opposition, with only Fergus O'Neill, Will Sutherland, Michael Archer, and Callum Stow picking up one wicket each.
Having won two of their three matches so far, the Renegades will need to regroup and improve their performance in all departments to get their campaign back on track.
Melbourne Renegades Academy Predicted Playing XI:
Josh Brown, Harry Dixon, Jai Lemire, Dylan Brasher, Will Sutherland, Arjun Nair, Oliver Peake, Fergus O'Neill, Xavier Crone, Callum Stow, Michael Archer.
