Press Release for KNKPL Semi Finals.

Shaheen Sports Lalpora trounce Lazzat Sopore to reach the finals of KNKPL-2025

The first semi-final of the Kilo North Kashmir Premier League-2025 was a cricketing extravaganza that enthralled fans and left an indelible mark on everyone involved. After winning the toss Lazzat Sopore decided to bat first and got off to a good start despite losing some early wicket. Valuable knocks from Fayaz Sarwar, Shabbir Lefty and Nasser took their team to a fighting total of 159 runs. Shehzad Lone was the pick of the bowlers with three wickets to his name as his counterparts took a wicket each.
Shaheen Sports Lalpora had the additional pressure of being the only Lolabi team left in the tournament. That pressure showed as they lost early wickets in blistering spells by Yasir Kuligami and Owais Baba. Tottering at 48-4 in just 6 overs, it looked like Shaheen Sports Lalpora were going to bundle out cheaply. But fate had other plans as Raja Tanveer and Shahid Mir took matters in their own hands and started dominating Lazzat's bowling. Raja's masterful strokeplay and Shahid's nuanced innings made sure that their 114 runs partnership was enough to see Shaheen Sports Lalpora cross the finish line with an over to spare and six wickets in hand. Raja scored a memorable 80 from 51 balls and Shahid proved to be a perfect foil to his attacking play by making a well crafted 54 out of 37 balls. For his stupendous performance Raja Tanveer was rightfully adjudged as the Man of the Match and recieved his award from RJ Sahil, RJ Xeus and the amazing team from Radio Chinar.

Now we wait for the second finalist which will be decided tomorrow as Narbal XI take on Shartgund Cricket Club in another highly anticipated match.

The league stage of the KNKPL-2025 ended with a thriller between Friends XI Lolab and Lazzat Sopore. Needing to restrict Lazzat Sopore under 135 runs to make a place in the semi-finals, Friends XI found themselves in a soup at 66-6 on the back of some disciplined bowling by Lazzat Sopore and some questionable shot selection by the batsmen.
However, Nasir Ganie rose to the occasion and smashed 82 runs off just 35 balls to take Friends XI Lolab to 164/6.

Aiming to restrict Lazzat Sopore within 135 runs to secure a spot in the Semi-finals, Friends XI Lolab got some early breakthroughs and had Lazzat Sopore down for 6 wickets for only 67 runs. However a 60 run 7th wicket partnership between Zubair and Fayaz shattered Friends XI Lolabs hope and despite winning the match by 21 runs they bowed out of the tournament.
Now the cricket lovers await the first semi-final that will be played between Shaheen Sports Lalpora and Lazzat Sopore tomorrow followed by Narbal XI and Shartgund Cricket Club on 17 September.
