Chitwan delivered a stellar performance in the Nepal Premier League, breaking Sudurpashchim’s winning streak with a crucial victory. This triumph not only halted Sudurpashchim’s momentum but also propelled Chitwan to second place on the points table.
Sudurpashchim, who had been in top form with three consecutive wins, struggled to maintain their dominance as Chitwan outclassed them in all departments. With this victory, Chitwan now stands level with Sudurpashchim on 6 points but takes the second spot due to a better net run rate of 1.76 compared to Sudurpashchim’s 2.18.
Janakpur remains unbeaten at the top of the table with 8 points, while teams like Karnali, Pokhara, and Kathmandu continue to fight for relevance in the middle of the standings. Lumbini, yet to register a win, languishes at the bottom.
Chitwan’s impressive win not only highlights their playoff aspirations but also adds excitement to the league as the race for the top positions heats up. Fans can expect more intense battles as the tournament progresses.
