While the Goldens boast of arguably the standout player in this year's competition, Ankit Dabbas, Mahendranagar United have ridden on the performances of their bowlers led by UAE pacer, Mohammad Naveed.

With a place in the final up for grabs, both teams will be looking to make inroads early on.


Squads to choose from:

Kathmandu Goldens:

Anil Kumar Sah, Ankit Dabas, Avinav Yadav, Bikram Thagunna, Bikram Kumar Bhusal, Gaurav Tomar, Gyanendra Malla, Lalit Narayan Rajbanshi, Mahaboob Alam, Nanadan Yadav, Rasid Khan, Sonu Tamang, Yogendra Karki, Sudhir Chaudhary, Surya Tamang.

Playing XI Updates:

Kathmandu Goldens:

The Goldens were underwhelming with the bat in the Qualifier 1 against CYC Attariya and will be looking for an improved performance from their star players. While Gyanendra Malla and Ankit Dabbas have been detrimental to their fortunes, the likes of Karki and Rajbanshi have led the way with the ball. With a fairly balanced team, Kathmandu Goldens will be looking to make short work of their opponents to claim a place in the final.

Ad

Possible XI: Anil Sah(WK), Tomar, Malla(C), Dabbas, Alam, S. Tamang, Rasid, NK Yadav, Karki, Rajbanshi and Surya Tamang

Mahendranagar United:

After a hard fought win over the Challengers, Mahendranagar United walk into this match with their morale quite high and the likes of Mohammad Naveed and Veswakar in good form. Rohit Paudel scored a fifty against UAE whilst announcing his arrival on the international stage. Since then he hasn't been able to replicate that form but with this being a crucial game for both teams, he could prove to be the difference.

Possible XI: Anand, Naveed, Vesawkar(C), Sheikh, Kushal Malla, Paudel, Nath(WK), Lohani, Routela, Bohara and Dhakal

Fantasy Tips and Suggestions:

Wicket-keeper: Both Anil Sah and Dilip Nath are decent options to go for although the former should get the nod due to his higher batting position. Anil Sah has also proven his worth behind the wickets which could bring in a few points to the fantasy tally.

Batsmen: Gyanendra Malla is one of Nepal's finest and has proven his worth on more than one occasion in this year's DPL. Along with teammate Gaurav Tomar, he is an invaluable asset to the fantasy team. The likes of Rohit Paudel and Arif Sheikh are also capable of piling on the runs and could prove to be viable picks.

All-rounders: A number of quality all-rounders are on offer amongst whom Ankit Dabbas and Sharad Vesawkar are guaranteed a place in the fantasy team owing to their superior form and record in the competition. One of Lohani or Routela could also be a handy option to have in the side with both of them proving their ability on a few occasions prior to this match.

Ad

Bowlers: Mohammad Naveed is a must have in the side while Nepal internationals, Avinash Bohara and Lalit Rajbanshi are capable of delivering a couple of wickets with the ball in hand. Sagar Dhakal ranks among the highest wicket-takers in the competition and would be a useful selection as well.

Captain: Due to their superior all-round skills and form, Ankit Dabbas and Mohammad Naveed are the ideal players to back for the role of captain. Naveed hasn't fully fired with the ball but in a do-or-die game such as this, one can back his calmness to shine through and deliver a couple of wickets.

Fantasy Suggestion #1: Anil Sah(WK), Gyanendra Malla, Arif Sheikh, Gaurav Tomar, Ankit Dabbas, Sharad Vesawkar, Siddhant Lohani, Mohammad Naveed, Sagar Dhakal, Lalit Rajbanshi and Nandan Yadav. Captain: Ankit Dabbas
