Karnali Yaks remain top of the Nepal Premier League 2026 points table with four points from two wins after rain cancelled both matches on Saturday, 31 October. Nepal Press reported that Lumbini Lions vs Chitwan Rhinos and Biratnagar Kings vs Sudurpaschim Royals were both cancelled, with all four teams awarded one point each. Lumbini Lions, Chitwan Rhinos, and Sudurpaschim Royals are now level on three points.

A win earns two points, and a tie or no result earns one. Teams' level on points is ranked by net run rate (NRR). The table below is calculated from the table published before Saturday plus the shared points.

Fixture dates are from the match listing on NPLT20League.com.

What changed. Lumbini and Chitwan stay unbeaten, but a shared point leaves both short of a second win. Biratnagar Kings are still without a win after three matches, though they now have a point. Sudurpaschim have played three matches to Lumbini’s and Chitwan’s two, so they have the fewest matches left of the three-point teams.

Qualification. The top four teams at the end of the league stage reach the playoffs. The top two meet in Qualifier 1 and the winner goes straight to the Final. The third and fourth teams play the Eliminator. The first fixtures that can change the table are Janakpur Bolts vs Pokhara Avengers on 1 November and Kathmandu Gurkhas vs Karnali Yaks on 2 November.
