The Nepal Premier League 2024 has reached its final phase, and the Kathmandu Gurkhas will play the 19th match against the Lumbini Lions. MS Dhoni-led Chennai will be looking forward to gain some points while Punjab will be seeking to up their rank on the points table. The Gurkhas are playing after a defeat against the Sudur Paschim Royals while the Lumbini Lions had quite a decent victory over the Chitwan Rhinos. The Lumbini Lions are presently at the bottom of the points table. They have won only a single match out of five.
This means that the Lumbini Lions are very much in need of a big win to try and take them forward to the next stage. However, they have a formidable disadvantage of having a very unpredictable batting order. Kathmandu Gurkhas, with playing win only one fixtures also similarly under pressure will be. It is going to be a cracker of a match, and there will be a lot of sweating and shading of nerves in order to gain a much needed victory.
