Open poll and resultsJanakpur Bolts vs Kathmandu Gorkhas prediction
Janakpur Bolts were beaten by 19 runs by Karnali Yaks in their opening NPL fixture, but there were positives to take from the performance. Harmeet Singh was the standout, taking three wickets for 22 runs in his four overs. The batting is where they fell short and improvement is needed on that front for them to stand a chance in this next game. Having gotten to grips with conditions in Kirtipur, you would expect that to happen.
Kathmandu Gorkhas are the final team to take the field in this year’s league phase. They boast arguably the biggest star power in the tournament, with long-time former Australia opener David Warner set to feature for them. However, when considering how good Harmeet looked with the ball against Karnali, it would be no surprise to see him gain more success, so back the USA international to take two or more wickets for the second game running.
