Bowlers established firm control over batsmen during Friday's two Nepal Premier League matches at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kathmandu. Batters found it difficult to generate runs as the playing surface offered limited pace, severely hindering fluent strokeplay throughout both contests of the ongoing third edition. The sluggish nature of the pitch caused the ball to behave unexpectedly, preventing it from coming onto the bat as anticipated. This environment created a tough scenario for the batting sides, resulting in a prominent shortage of runs across both fixtures played during the day. Following the outcomes of Friday's games, the tournament journeys for both Janakpur and Karnali officially came to an end. Neither team managed to progress further in the third edition of the national franchise competition after failing to overcome the challenging conditions at the venue.
