MNR will be entering the game with a defeat against Welsh Fire (WEF), where they fell short by nine runs while chasing a target of 95 in a rain-curtailed 40-ball match.
LNS on the other hand, faced disappointment in their opening match against Oval Invincibles (OVI) , as they were unable to defend a total of 131 and eventually lost the contest by three wickets.
