Chitwan set Pokhara 152-run target in must-win NPL clash

Chitwan Rhinos set Pokhara Avengers a target of 152 in their Nepal Premier League match at the TU International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur on Friday, posting 151 for six in 20 overs after being asked to bat first. Both teams need a win, with Chitwan on three points and Pokhara yet to open their account after losing their first three matches.

Raza scored 37 off 16 balls, including two fours and four sixes, while Bopara made 35 off 28 deliveries, hitting three fours and two sixes. Dan Mousley was dismissed for two, and Kushal Malla contributed 11 as Chitwan struggled to build on its opening partnership before Raza and Bopara's stand lifted the total.
