Tap a team to vote.

Janakpur Bolts go into this game as slight favourites, and we expect them to win it.

Janakpur Bolts come in with the better form, having won two of their last five games, while Chitwan Rhinos have won one of their last five.

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.

JB vs CR Pitch Report

Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur

Runs have not come easily at Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, where the bowlers usually find something in the surface.

The first-innings average over the last 40 T20 games at this ground is 147, and 133 in the second innings. A score of 140-155 looks like par on this surface. 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: 129/6 (CR, lost), 180/6 (KY, lost), 147/7 (JB), 105/2 (BTK, won), 186/7 (BTK, lost). Recent games have followed the usual pattern, with the last 5 first innings averaging 149. First-innings totals here have ranged from 87 to 222 in that time.

Spin has done the damage here: slow bowlers have taken 61% of the wickets (19 of 31). Seamers have gone at 8.36 an over and spinners at 6.91, 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.
