Tap a team to vote.

We are backing Kathmandu Gorkhas, who start as favourites with a 60% win chance.

Kathmandu Gorkhas come in with the better form, having won three of their last five games, while Chitwan Rhinos have won one of their last five. They know these conditions, with three wins from five games at this venue, compared with one from four for Chitwan Rhinos.

The toss could matter here. Chasing has been the better option at this ground, so the captain who calls right may well choose to bowl first. We expect a first-innings score of around 145, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.

CR vs KG Pitch Report

Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur

This is a ground where bowlers stay in the game, and totals at Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground are usually on the low side.

The first-innings average over the last 40 T20 games at this ground is 148, and 134 in the second innings. Batting first, a side will want something around 140-155 on the board. There is little to choose between batting first and chasing, 18 wins to 22 across the last 40 decided games.

The last 5 first-innings scores here, newest first: 174/3 (BTK, won), 129/6 (CR, lost), 180/6 (KY, lost), 147/7 (JB), 105/2 (BTK, won). Recent games have followed the usual pattern, with the last 5 first innings averaging 147. First-innings totals here have ranged from 87 to 222 in that time.

Spin has done the damage here: slow bowlers have taken 62% of the wickets (20 of 32). Seamers have gone at 8.36 an over and spinners at 6.90, so expect the slower bowlers to be used to control the scoring.

Toss call: a close one. Bowling first and knowing the target is the safer choice.
