Top performers
Player of the Match Sompal Kami did it both ways: 4 for 33 with the ball, then 62 not out off 32 with the bat to win the chase. Lokesh Bam's 87 off 52, with nine sixes, was the biggest innings of the season so far, and Angelo Mathews' 3 for 25 kept Biratnagar in the game until the final over.
Player of the Match: Sompal Kami (Karnali Yaks, 62* off 32, 4/33).
Points table
Two points for Karnali, none for Biratnagar. It was the Yaks' second win in two games, and the Kings' second defeat in two — a strong start for Karnali and a worrying one for Biratnagar, who had now lost a close chase after losing their opener. The NPL 2026 season was six matches old, and Karnali were the early form team.
