Kathmandu Gorkhas posted 134 for six against Biratnagar Kings in their Nepal Premier League (NPL) fixture at the TU International Cricket Stadium on Saturday, setting a target of 135.

Mohammad Aadil Alam top-scored for Kathmandu with a well-made 48, striking four fours and two sixes. Ben Charlesworth added 32, while Santosh Yadav contributed 26.

Gerhard Erasmus chipped in with 10, but the remaining batters failed to reach double figures as Biratnagar kept regular control over the innings.

For Biratnagar, Marchant de Lange led the attack with two wickets, while Shubham Ranjane, Surya Tamang and Sandeep Lamichhane claimed one apiece.

Kathmandu will now look to defend the modest score against a Biratnagar batting line-up known for its aggressive approach.

In its first match, Kathmandu had defeated Janakpur Bolts while lost to Sudurpaschim in the second match. Biratnagar had earlier defeated Pokhara Avengers.
