Grace TNCA T20 League Heats Up: Legends, Warriors, and Rhinos Lead the Charge!

The Grace TNCA T20 League Powered by Advance College Tasmania continues to deliver exciting and competitive cricket across Tasmania. Round 3 saw some intense matchups, individual brilliance, and teams fighting hard to establish their dominance in the league table.

Round 3 Wrap-Up

The weekend kicked off with Gurkha Legends continuing their outstanding run, securing their third consecutive victory in dominant fashion against Capital Dragons. Led by Sandip Adhikari’s blistering 68 not out from just 31 balls, the Legends comfortably chased down their target without losing a wicket. The Legends remain unbeaten and stand tall at the top of the table.

Over at Weily Park, Kathmandu Warriors edged past Everest Stars in a nail-biting finish. Chasing a modest total, the Warriors held their nerve in the final over, winning by just two wickets. Sudip Pandey was exceptional once again, contributing both with the ball and the bat to guide his team home — three wins in three and a strong statement from the Warriors.

At Eady Street Oval, Expert Cricket Club registered a massive 73-run victory over Envision Cricket Club. A brilliant all-round performance by Santosh Poudel — scoring 41 runs and taking 3 wickets — helped Expert climb higher on the table with two wins from three matches.

In another thrilling encounter, Moonlight Rhinos continued their unbeaten streak with a dramatic 2-run win over Yeti Cricket Club. In a low-scoring contest that went down to the very last ball, Rhinos held their composure to claim their third straight victory. Niranjan Bhandari’s economical spell (3 wickets for 17 runs) stood out despite being on the losing side.

As the dust settled on Round 3, the top three — Gurkha Legends, Kathmandu Warriors, and Moonlight Rhinos — remain unbeaten, while Expert Cricket Club follows closely behind.

Standout Performers After Round 3

• Top Run Scorer: Khem Raj Poudel (Gurkha Legends) – 182 runs

• Top Wicket Taker: Subarna Joshi (Moonlight Rhinos) – 7 wickets

Both players have been instrumental in their teams’ success so far and will be key to their continued dominance in the coming rounds.
