CRS vs KGS Match Preview:
Chitwan Rhinos will take on Kathmandu Gurkhas in the 20th match of the Nepal Premier League (NPL) 2026 at Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur, on 9 November at 4:45 PM IST. Kathmandu currently occupy second place with six points from four matches, having recorded three victories and one defeat. Meanwhile, Chitwan sit fifth with four points from five matches, including two wins and three losses. Kathmandu will aim to strengthen their position near the top of the standings, whereas Chitwan will look to secure another victory and improve their playoff prospects.
Chitwan enter this contest after defeating Pokhara Avengers by 30 runs in their previous match. They posted 151/6 in 20 overs, with Sikandar Raza leading the charge through 37 off just 16 balls. Ravi Bopara contributed 35 off 28 deliveries, while Arjun Saud added 31 off 27. Their bowlers then delivered an impressive performance, as Rijan Dhakal claimed 4/24 and Kamal Singh Airee picked up 3/7 to restrict Pokhara to 121. On the other hand, Kathmandu Gurkhas secured a convincing 36-run victory over Lumbini Lions in their latest outing. They scored 160/8, with David Warner top-scoring with 66 off 50 balls. Sahil Patel added 38 off 36, while Sahan Arachchige provided late acceleration with 34 off just 15 deliveries. Kathmandu’s bowlers subsequently restricted Lumbini to 124 in 19.3 overs, with Jahandad Khan taking 4/23 and Karan KC claiming 2/24.
The Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground generally offers a balanced T20 surface, where batters can score freely after settling in, while spinners often become more influential as the innings progresses. Chitwan will depend on Raza, Bopara and Dawid Malan to provide batting strength, while Rijan Dhakal and Kamal Singh Airee will play important roles with the ball. Meanwhile, Kathmandu have a strong batting combination featuring Warner, Sahil Patel and Arachchige. Their bowling attack also offers plenty of variety through Jahandad Khan, Karan KC and Rashid Khan. Although Chitwan’s recent victory will boost their confidence, Kathmandu’s three wins from four matches and their convincing performance against Lumbini give them added momentum. Overall, Kathmandu Gurkhas hold a slight advantage heading into this encounter.
