Match Details:
The 11th match of the Nepal One Day 2021 will be played between Nepal Police Club and Lumbini Province at Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur.
This match is scheduled to start at 09:00 AM Local Time (08:45 AM IST).
Preview:
After a poor start to their 2021 Prime Minister Cup campaign, Nepal Police Club have managed to turn things around in their last game. In their first game, they were completely outplayed by the Bagmati Province. However, in their last match against Sudur Paschim Province, they showed what they are capable of doing.
On the other hand, Lumbini Province also showed their strength in their last match, which was also their opening game of the season. Against a strong Province Number 2 team, they registered a 77-run win. Given that both team will come into this game high on confidence, fans might be in for an exciting watch.
