Chitwan Rhinos vs Karnali Yaks Toss Prediction
Karnali Yaks are predicted to win the toss and bat first, even though both recent Kirtipur games in our data were won by the chasing side. No dew or pitch report has been confirmed, so batting first is a gamble, but a total of 150+ would at least give their bowlers something to defend.
Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur Pitch Report
No curator’s report was available at the time of writing, so this pitch report works from recent scores. Janakpur made 88/9, Karnali 105, and the two winning chases finished on 92/6 and 107/6, so runs have been hard to find here. Our projected totals of 160+ and 150+ sit well above those numbers, which means we are betting on better batting than we have seen lately.
Weather Report
No temperature or dew reading was available at the time of writing, so treat this weather report as provisional. Dew usually matters more in evening games, and the two recent matches here were day-night. Check the local forecast and the start time before the toss, since conditions could change the toss decision and the projected totals.

Chitwan Rhinos vs Karnali Yaks Team Preview & Squads
Chitwan Rhinos
Sikandar Raza captains Chitwan, whose recent form reads A L W L W. The latest win came in a chase of 89, finished with 16 balls to spare. Raza is also tipped as the leading wicket-taker for his side, so his influence runs through both the leadership and the bowling.
Dawid Malan is the listed key batter and was Player of the Match with 35* off 39 balls last time. That is not fast scoring, but it won the game. With Kamil Mishara, Ravi Bopara, Arjun Saud and Kushal Malla also in the squad, the likely playing XI should reach 160+, and Malan is our pick for most runs and sixes.
Ranjit Kumar is the key bowler and Mishara is the key all-rounder, which gives Raza balance. Kamal Airee, Rijan Dhakal and Mousom Dhakal add depth, and Chitwan held Janakpur to 88/9 in their last outing.

Karnali Yaks
David Miller captains Karnali and is also their key batter, so a lot rests on him. The team’s form reads W L L L L, and the latest result was a four-wicket loss to Lumbini after they scraped together 105.
Miller is predicted to top-score and hit the most sixes, with Dipendra Rawat, Ariful Islam, Deepak Dumre, Hussain Talat and Sompal Kami around him. A total of 150+ is realistic only if the top order survives the first six overs.
Mark Watt is the key bowler and Pawan Sarraf is the all-rounder. Talat is tipped to lead the wicket-takers, with Gulsan Jha, Nandan Yadav and Bipin Sharma in support. Our skepticism is simple: four defeats in a row is hard to shrug off, even with a 2-1 head-to-head lead.
