The Chitwan Rhinos suffered a significant blow in their chase of 167 as opening batsman Deepak Bohora departed after a solid start, falling victim to the clever leg-spin of Yuvraj Khatri.
The dismissal occurred in the 10th over with the score reading 67/3. Bohora, who was looking set for a big score, was caught by Sompal Kami off the bowling of the young leg-spinner, Khatri. Bohora’s promising innings came to an end on 42 runs off 36 balls.
His wicket is a crucial breakthrough for the Karnali Yaks, as Bohora had been the anchor of the Rhinos‘ chase. His removal at this critical juncture means the Yaks have tightened their grip on the middle overs. The Rhinos now find themselves under immense pressure, with new batsmen at the crease needing to build a substantial partnership to keep up with the required run rate.
Yuvraj Khatri’s timely strike highlights the impact of spin in the middle overs and gives the Karnali Yaks a much-needed advantage in the Match 2 encounter of the Nepal Premier League.
