At last Pakistan got an easy victory against Nepal. As expected it happened like that only. Nepal did well in the initial overs while bowling, but couldn’t stop the mighty Babar. We have to also praise the brilliant batting done by Babar. We expected at least Nepal will give a bit of tough competition, but Nepal’s batting lineup was too weak against Pakistan’s dangerous bowling attack. Now all eyes on the 2nd Sept India vs Pakistan match. Let’s see which team wins this one.

This is the first time Nepal has been able to participate in the Asian Cup and must face Pakistan in the inaugural match what a bad schedule for Nepal because Pakistan is one of the strongest Asian Cup teams who always dominate matches.
When the Pakistan VS Nepal match schedule came out we could all predict from the start who would finish the match with a win and it was true that Pakistan had no difficulty facing Nepal even though Nepal had played well.

In the history of the Asian Cup India has a record of consecutive wins or is the defending champion but last season it was Sri Lanka who managed to win the Asian Cup by beating Pakistan and for this season it looks like the three teams will compete to winner.

In the first innings, Pakistan's runs could have been less and wickets could have fallen more if Nepal had fielded better, we noticed several fielding misses from Nepal and they missed several catches which were very easy catches. If they could have caught all the catches and fielded well then Pakistan's runs would not have been so high. Nepal's batting in the second innings looked like they might be in a hurry to give away wickets, two wickets in the last two balls of the first over, Nasim Shah again picked up multiple wickets in the next over, that is, if three to four wickets fall in the first two overs, then how can the game be played? Which team will come back, that's what happened in Nepal. Pakistan had a chance to win but we expected a bit better performance from Nepal.

At one point, Pakistan was struggling at 124/4. Then Babar Azam and Iftikhar Ahmed were involved in a 214 run partnership for the 5th wicket. But before that, Nepal fielders had dropped a very easy catch from Babar. If that catch was taken, there was a very real possibility that Pakistan could have got bowled out for a total of less than 200. Associate nations such as Nepal doesn't have the luxury of being complacent at field. If they don't make use of the opportunities that they get, then the next one may come after many decades.

It's going to be a tough one for India. Pakistan is in exceptional form, and they are currently ranked at the top of ICC's ODI rankings table. India on the other hand, have dropped down the ranking, and some of their players such as Jasprit Bumrah and Shreyas Iyer are returning to the team after extended breaks as a result of injury. And in the first match itself India need to take on Pakistan, with the match against Nepal scheduled for 4th September. But the advantage for India is that Pakistanis need to travel from Multan to Pallekele, while the Indian players reached there many days back.

Nepal started well but as expected they were not able to be consistent. That catch drop of Babar Azam at 55 paid a heavy cost. This match has been dominated by the Pakistani and I don't think it will be possible for Nepalese batters to chase such a huge target. As expected this match would be an easy win for Pakistan.

Do you think Nepalese batters would be able to chase the target? If you think they cannot then how many runs would they be able to chase?

As the Pakistan team is stronger than Nepal, Pakistan's chances of victory is much higher that is known to everyone. But in cricket anything can happen at any time in the game, perhaps if Nepal could have stuck them in a reliable position, they would have had a chance in the match. But according to the current position nothing good can be expected from Nepal. Meanwhile, Nepal managed to score only 84 runs for the loss of 5 wickets. They completely lost control in this match. Anything could have happened if the Nepali team could have restricted Pakistan below 300.

At one stage Nepal was looking strong when 4 wickets goes down. Thats was a time when Nepal need to use pace bowlers to put pressure on Pakistan team. If they succeeded in taking two more wickets then I think results would be different. Nepal bowlers did a well job at start but babar and Iftikhar breaks the dream of Nepal team and gives huge target. 343 is huge target and Pakistan will be happy with today batting. Iftikhar made first ODI century on the time when Pakistan really need it

1% chances for Nepal to chase target I think because Pakistan has top class bowlers and most of the time bowlers win low score match for Pakistan. Nepal should have to score in powerplay and shouldn't lose wicket at start. If top order batsmens make a good partnership than I think match sentiment can be changed.

The first innings of the Asia Cup is finished. What a batting performance from Pakistan. In the first 10 overs, Pakistan lost their two best batsman but what a partnership of Babar Azam and Iftikhar Ahmed. Babar Azam scored 151 in 131 balls and Iftikhar Ahmed scored 109 in 71 balls.

Pakistan batting brilliantly in the first innings and they managed to score a huge score. The way they batted today confirmed that they will be able to win the match. Although Pakistan lost 6 wickets and scored 342 runs which was enough runs for Pakistan to win today. Pakistan batsman Babar Azam his batting performance was excellent he scored 151 runs from 131 balls, Babar Azam his batting performance was very good after his century today. And another batsman Iftikhar Ahmed also scored a century with his bat collecting 109 runs off 71 balls which was really amazing. Today's huge score would be a sure win for Pakistan, and Nepal must reach the target given by Pakistan to win the match which is really tough.

What do you think would be a good target for Nepal?

A target of 250 and more would not be that easy for Pakistan to chase. Pakistan has a good bowling attack and with Afridi in the squad it won't be easy for Nepalese batters.

At the moment Nepal is playing well. They would be now targeting Babar Azam, if he gets out then Pakistan would face issues in reaching above 250. The conditions look touch, it looks like the weather is hot and humidity level are high. I just saw Babar Azam being helped by fitness expert.

Pakistan has scored 70 runs in the last 5 overs. Babar Azam and Iftikhar Ahmed are just blasting the Nepal bowlers all over the park. At this rate, Nepal can consider themselves lucky, if they can restrict Pakistan to a total of less than 350. Once Iftikhar came to the crease, he took match away from Nepal. Babar anchored himself at the other end, while Iftikhar went in attack mode. After the 35th over or so, Babar also switched on to attack mode. Not too many positives to take away for Nepal from this match. They would have been in a much situation if they hadn't dropped those catches.

Current run rate is below 5 runs per over and Pakistan has already lost 4 wickets. Babar Azam is still batting which is a good sign for Pakistan. Nepal really bowled well and also fielded good. Looks like Pakistan is depending a lot on its bowlers for now. They need to increase their run rate as 21 overs are still remaing for their innings.to end. A dominated victory by Pakistan against a new team Nepal is the need for every Pakistani cricket fan today.

What do you think would be a good target for Nepal?

Fakar Zaman out and Babar Azam is in. Pakistan loses their first wicket within the power play. All responsibility of scoring runs now falls on the shoulder of Pakistan captain. He is looking good, starts with a boundary. Still plenty of batter to bat for Pakistan. Good bowling for now by KC of Nepal and great catch by the Nepalese wicket keeper. Nepal fielding is not upto the International standard they are not looking good for now on the field.

Edit: Second wicket taken by Nepal due to good fielding. Looks like I was too early to jude their fielding capabilities. Both Pakistani opners are back into the pavilion.

Pakistan's two wicket loss puts the team under a lot of pressure. Fakhar Zaman and Imam-ul-Haq, the opening two batsmen, were out, putting the team under a lot of pressure. Especially Karan KC of Nepal team saw the best bowling performance. In this way, if the Pakistan team continues to lose wickets, then there is a possibility of losing in the last stage. Fakhar Zaman could have not over pressured but he should have waited given the speed the ball was swinging. The second wicket was given out under too much pressure and Pakistan could not have done better if they had been patient on the field.

But, at this time Pakistan maintained their score but Pakistan lost one big wicket more. Rizwan was run out. Pakistan had good bowlers who could do something for Pakistan to win. Pakistan lost Imam-Ul-Haq, Fakhar Zaman and most importantly Rizwan is also out. Anyways, Pakistan can do something to win the match.

At this time Ceremony started in Multan Cricket Stadium and the toss was also done, Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat. That is a very good thing for Pakistan to choose batting according to the pitch of Mulan Cricket Stadium and Pakistan doesn't take Nepal lightly.

To be honest India and Pakistan teams looking very strong. I don’t know about the hype of today’s match between Pak and Nepal, but on 2nd of September, it will be a high thriller match between India and Pakistan. Nepal have surely shown positive attitude and hence will be taking part in the Asia Cup for the first time. But still it’s clearly visible that between Pakistan and Nepal’s match, Pakistan will get easy victory against the team. Moreover Srilanka and Bangladesh will also give equal fight. Let’s see who lifts the trophy at last.

Pakistan can definitely win today because Pakistan is stronger than Nepal team. Babar Azam, Rizwan, Imam-ul-Haq, Faqar Zaman are the best players of Pakistan team but compared to them, Nepal team has no strong players. And I bet for Pakistan I definitely want Pakistan to win today. Pakistan team's bowling point is stronger than Nepal's so in any aspect Pakistan is ahead today. If both the teams can defend the wicket till the end, it will surely give the visitors a game full of competition.

If this tournament was played with the T20 format then any of these two team could have won. As the tournament is being played in ODI format Pakistan has the upper edge. They are the number one team in this format defeating big names like Australia and India. I also believe Pakistan are the favourite to win this year's Asia Cup. Srilanka could trouble them as they are very good in their home ground. India still has big issue with their middle order. On paper Indian team looks good but the middle order has been batting very bad for sometime now.
