Nepal faces a target of 161 runs after restricting West Indies A to 160/7 in the second T20 match. West Indies A, opting to bat first after winning the toss, struggled to build momentum against Nepal’s relentless spin attack. Andre Fletcher top-scored with 43 runs, while a late blitz from Gudakesh Motie (33* off 8 balls) provided a crucial boost in the final overs.
Sagar Dhakal spearheaded Nepal’s bowling effort, taking 2 wickets for just 19 runs in his 4 overs. Nepal’s early success, dismissing openers Johnson Charles and Alick Athanaze cheaply, put consistent pressure on West Indies A. Kushal Bhurtel (2/22), Sompal Kami, and Dipendra Singh Airee also contributed wickets for the home team.
Nepal holds a 1-0 lead in the five-match series after their thrilling victory in the opening match. Can they maintain their winning form and chase down the target?
