The Lions are led by dependable top-order batter Rohit Paudel and feature wicketkeeper-batters Aadil Khan and Dilip Nath who add depth in the middle order. With all-rounders like Bibek Yadav and Durgesh Gupta providing balance, they have a squad capable of impacting both bat and ball.
Kushal Bhurtel (C), Dinesh Kharel, Sandeep Chhetri, Trit Raj Das, Bipin Khatri, Arjun Kumal, Abhishek Tiwari, Kiran Thagunna, Aakash Chand, Sagar Dhakal, Krishna Poudel
The Avengers are captained by dynamic top-order batter Kushal Bhurtel and feature reliable spinner Sagar Dhakal for the middle overs. With all-round options like Arjun Kumal and Bipin Khatri strengthening the squad, they have depth but will need consistent contributions from both bat and ball to challenge the Lions.
The Pokhara Stadium pitch generally offers a balanced contest. Early seam movement favors pacers in the first 5–6 overs. Spinners can exploit turn and bounce in the middle overs. Batters tend to score quickly in the first 10 overs, while the second innings may slightly slow down.
