About NPL Live Scores
The NPL 2026 live score on this page covers every Nepal Premier League Season 3 match — all 28 league games plus the four playoff fixtures, played at Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur from October 26 to November 21, 2026. For each live match you see both innings totals, wickets fallen, overs bowled, run rate and the final result as soon as the game ends.
Scores refresh automatically about every two minutes while a match is live, with a manual Refresh button if you want the latest score right away. Between matches this page always shows the upcoming fixture list and recent results, so it stays useful throughout the tournament — not just on match days.
Most match days follow a simple pattern: double-headers start at 12:30 PM and 5:00 PM NST, while single-match days start at 5:00 PM NST. Scheduled rest days fall on October 30, November 4, November 8 and November 11, when no live score is running. The season opens with Lumbini Lions vs Sudurpaschim Royals on October 26 at 5:00 PM NST.
For the full picture around each game, use the full 32-match schedule for fixtures, the points table for standings and net run rate, and the individual match pages for fixture details and countdowns. Live data: Cricbuzz match centre. Official ball-by-ball video streaming: NetTV worldwide, Himalaya TV in Nepal — see the streaming guide.
How to Follow NPL 2026 Live Scores
Following the NPL 2026 live score on this page is simple. Open this page on any phone or computer during a match and the score updates by itself — no app to install and no account to create. The live score refreshes about every ten minutes while play is on, and the Refresh button at the top of the page pulls the latest score immediately whenever you want it. Each live match card shows both innings totals, wickets fallen, overs bowled and the running match situation, so you can catch up on a game in seconds even if you missed the first few overs.
Between matches, this page never goes blank. The Match 1 scorecard at the top tracks the season opener, the live and recent scores section shows the latest finished games, and the full schedule below lists every remaining fixture with its date, time and venue. If a match is about to start, its card shows the countdown and fixture details; once play begins, the same card fills in with the live score and, after the result, the final score. For ball-by-ball text commentary and video, use the official streaming options — NetTV worldwide and Himalaya TV in Nepal — linked in the streaming guide.
One habit makes following the tournament much easier: check the points table after every match day. Because the league stage is a single round-robin, every result changes the standings, and net run rate often decides who reaches the playoffs. This page links the live score, the full schedule and the points table together, so you can move from a scorecard to the standings and back without hunting for another site.
NPL 2026 Match Schedule at a Glance
The NPL 2026 live score covers 32 matches across 27 days. The league stage runs from October 26 to November 15, with 28 games in which every team plays every other team once. Then come the playoffs: Qualifier 1 on November 17, the Eliminator on November 18, Qualifier 2 on November 19, and the Grand Finale on Saturday, November 21, 2026. Every single match — league and playoffs alike — is played at Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur.
Match days follow a fan-friendly pattern. On double-header days, the first match starts at 12:30 PM NST and the second at 5:00 PM NST. On single-match days, play starts at 5:00 PM NST. Four scheduled rest days — October 30, November 4, November 8 and November 11 — break up the league stage for pitch maintenance and squad recovery, so no live score runs on those dates. The season opener sets the tone: defending champions Lumbini Lions face Sudurpaschim Royals on Monday, October 26 at 5:00 PM NST.
The full schedule cards below are arranged in date order, so you can scroll from the opener through to the final without opening another page. Each card shows the match number, the two teams, the date and start time, the venue, and a status badge — UPCOMING before the game, LIVE during play, and RESULT once the match is done. League cards link to dedicated match pages with countdowns and full scorecards, while playoff cards read TBD vs TBD until the qualifying teams are decided on the points table.
Teams to Watch in Season 3
Eight franchises contest NPL Season 3, and the live score tells a different story for each of them. Lumbini Lions arrive as defending champions after winning the Season 2 title in 2025, beating Sudurpaschim Royals in the final. They open the new season against the same opponent, so the first live score of Season 3 is a rematch of the last final — a fitting start to the tournament.
Janakpur Bolts carry the history of the league: they won the inaugural Season 1 title in 2024, again beating Sudurpaschim Royals in the final. That makes Sudurpaschim Royals the most consistent challenger of the young league — finalists in both of the first two seasons, and still chasing a first title. A third straight final appearance would make their live scores some of the most followed of the season.
The other five franchises — Biratnagar Kings, Chitwan Rhinos, Karnali Yaks, Kathmandu Gorkhas and Pokhara Avengers — all start the season level on points and chasing their first championship. In a single round-robin league stage, a fast start matters: the top four teams reach the playoffs, and net run rate separates teams locked on equal points. Watch the early live scores closely, because the teams that bank wins in the first week usually control their own path to the playoffs. Two headline names raise the stakes this season: West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell joins Biratnagar Kings, and former Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq coaches Sudurpaschim Royals.
Live Score, Points Table and Streaming
A live score only makes sense alongside the standings, so this page is built to work with the rest of the site. The points table updates after every result: teams earn 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie or a no-result, and 0 points for a loss, with net run rate breaking ties between teams on equal points. When a close game ends, check the points table right away — one result can lift a team from fifth to second, or push a contender into the danger zone.
The full schedule is the other companion page. It lists the same 32 fixtures as the cards below, plus venue and broadcast details, while the individual match pages carry countdowns and fixture-level scorecards. For watching the action live, the streaming guide explains how NetTV carries every match worldwide and Himalaya TV broadcasts in Nepal. Between the live score, the points table, the schedule and the streaming guide, you have the whole tournament covered from one hub.
NPL 2026 Venue Guide
Every NPL 2026 live score on this page comes from one ground: Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur, in the Kathmandu valley. The venue hosted the first two NPL seasons and hosts all 32 Season 3 matches, from the October 26 opener to the November 21 Grand Finale. Because the whole tournament sits at a single venue, fans get a consistent rhythm — the same ground, the same 12:30 PM and 5:00 PM start times, and the same pitch conditions shaping every scorecard.
For fans following from home, the single-venue setup makes planning easy. There is no travel between cities to track and no venue changes to remember: if a match is on, it is at Kirtipur. The four rest days are the only breaks in the calendar, and they exist so the ground staff can prepare the pitch for the next block of games. If you are attending in person, check the tickets page for entry details and the teams page for squad news before you travel.
