NPL 2024: Pokhara Avengers Beat Biratnagar Kings In Nail-Biting Super-Over

The Kings won the toss and opted to bat first but could only manage a modest total of 139/7 in 20 overs. Pokhara's bowlers, led by Sagar Dhakal and Raymon Reifer, were exceptional, each taking two wickets.

In response, the Avengers struggled to build momentum as Biratnagar's bowlers were on fire, with Pravesh GC claiming four wickets for just 18 runs in his four overs. Chris Sole also chipped in with two wickets, restricting Pokhara to 139/6 in their full 20 overs, resulting in a tie.

And then, in the Super Over, Pokhara's Raymon Reifer played a brilliant knock, smashing two sixes and a boundary off five balls, while Andries Gous added 1, bringing their total to 18.

On the other hand, Biratnagar's faltered as Martin Guptill managed only 2 runs off 4 balls, and Nicholas Kirton could only score 2 off 3 balls, to post a total of 5 runs (with 1 extras) handing the win to the Avengers.
