Two Afternoon Openers, Then the Evenings Take Over
The Rhinos start under daylight: both opening fixtures, on 27 and 31 October, begin at 12:30 PM NST, which is 10:30 AM in the Gulf and 11:45 AM in Pakistan, so the diaspora watches over a late morning. November shifts the rhythm: all four remaining pre-break games start at 5:00 PM NST (3:00 PM Gulf, 4:15 PM Pakistan), and the league stage closes with one more afternoon game, against Karnali Yaks on 15 November.
