Generally 156 runs in ODI match is not a big score because of which Nepal team was able to win that match. Nepal team came under pressure but that pressure did not last long. After the fall of a couple of quick wickets, there was doubt as to who would win the team. However, the Nepalese team came to the end and managed to hold which is why Nepal finally secured their victory before the allotted overs. If this score would have been like 250 then it would have been difficult for Nepal team to win. Tomorrow there will be a rivalry between United States of America vs Scotland where Scotland team has more chances to win.
Yes you are right Nepal won ODI match mainly because target of 156 runs was not too high. They faced pressure and lost some important wickets but they stayed strong and won before using up all their overs. If target had been 250 it would have been much harder. Nepal win shows they are getting better at international cricket. For tomorrow match between US and Scotland, Scotland has an advantage because of their experience and skills. But cricket can be unpredictable so US should not be counted out. So let's see who will win USA or Scotland.

It is unbelievable that Nepal will win the match against Scotland, but Nepal has done it with skill. Nepal team players performed brilliantly in yesterday's match against Scotland. As a result, Nepal cricket team won the match very easily. No one could have imagined that Nepal team would be able to show such a good performance in yesterday's match. To be honest, I had bet on Scotland team as favorite team in yesterday's match with full confidence. But unfortunately, I lost completely from that bet.
In both these teams Nepal and Scotland, Scotland team is good but their team effort in this ODI game with Nepal which was played in ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 series was quite worst and this was 39 the game and few more games left before end of this series. Nepal team won toss and elected bat first and Scotland team scored 154 runs in 50 overs by losing all wickets. Watt only made 34 runs otherwise, their remaining Batsman lost their wickets below 20 runs and some lost wicket for 0 runs. Nepal bowlers showed outstanding struggle in bowling and stopped Batsman of Scotland team to 154 runs only and this was easy run to chase. Sheikh made 51 runs in 42 balls and hitted eight 4s with not dismissal and helped a lot team to win this game. He also took down 1 wicket in 3 overs and gave 9 runs. Congratulations Nepal team to win this game and also sheikh yo get player of game award. 
Yes ,you are right. Nepal International ODI cricket team played very well in this match and chased the score in almost 30 overs and they lose only 5 wickets and they had 5 wickets in the hand . Aarif Sheikh was player of the match because he performance incredible and he was the reason behind the success of Nepal team because he did well in all formats and played half century for his team and he took 1 wicket by giving 9 runs in 3 overs. Scotland team could win this match but they could not apply pressure at critical moments and Nepal players because successful to build partnership and that was big reason of failure of Scotland team.
Nepal won the game by 5 wickets and 121 balls and in this round Nepal team played with amazing performance and their gameplay is good. Nepal won the toss and chose batting first. The best of luck both teams for their upcoming matches. Nepal is a very good team and performance was very outstanding. They showed great skill and determination on the field. He was also lucky that day for Nepal team. Nepal team total runs for 157 and won the match. Scotland team did not set good record and total they made runs for 154 and lost the match. The 39th match between Nepal and Scotland was played at grand Prairie stadium. It's great to hear that they are making good progress and wining the match for Nepal. I hope they continue to play well and keep making same form in the future to. Nepal is a very talented team and their cricket styles is also very unique. The good bowling performance in the Nepal team was by Brandon McMullen scored 7.5 over 41 runs and took 2 wickets. Congratulations to Nepal team for their upcoming matches. 
For some reason Nepal proved all of us wrong, they batted well and chased down 154 runs which was not an easy target for them. However, throughout that inning, I thought Nepal would struggle to chase it in the end as they were continuously losing wickets. However, the partnership between Aarif Sheikh and Gulsan Jha was a turning point of the game. Aarif Sheikh made 50 runs and remained not out. Also, Gulsan Jha also made 25 valuable runs at the end of the innings. Scotland would be shocked by these results as they missed the 2 important points.
Yes you are absolutely right Nepal did amazingly well and proved everyone wrong by scoring 154 runs which was very tough target. Even though they lost wickets regularly they did not give up. Partnership between Aarif Sheikh and Gulsan Jha was turning point. Aarif scored 50 runs without getting out and Gulsan added 25 important runs towards the end. This surprising win will surely shock Scotland who missed out on important points. Nepal showed that they can work together and overcome difficulties.

In WCL 2, Nepal will take on Scotland today. Scotland has won their last four matches and today they can make this five. I don’t see any reason why Scotland can't win this match. This match is important for Scotland because they are on 4th spot on points table will 11 points. A win will put them ahead of Netherlands who have 12 points. Nepal on the other side, do not have any motivation to play for a win other than to save their pride with winning the match. Also if we compare them head to head, it was way back in 2023 when Nepal last time beat Scotland.
Based on the history, i have placed my bet on Scotland but right now Scotland team is in little trouble as they got a shaky start to the innings. Scotland lost two early wickets when their opener Charlie Tear was out making no score and Andrew Umeed scored 14. Scotland need someone who can get them out of this trouble, not only make a partnership but also play a bit fast. Though it is very early in the match but another one or two wickets and the game may be over for Scotland.
I placed the bet on Scotland before match started and I got 1.45 odds for it. If Scotland doesn't play well from here, I feel that I may lose another bet today.
Easy game for Nepal to win. I thought Scotland was a good team and having good points in this ICC Men’s World Cup League 2 and also having good position in the point table and they would win it easily while on the other side Nepal has the most poor results in their last games but today they had beat to Scotland in very simple way without facing any trouble.
From the start, Nepal was winning the game and eventually, they had increased their run rate and at the same time points but still there is no chance for Nepal to do comeback in the point table and become a part of top 4.
Well played, and the combined effort from the India women's team has made them win the final match and record the series win against the New Zealand women's team. Winning the toss, the New Zealand women's team decides to bat first. From the beginning, the team struggled as they continuously lost wickets. By the time Halliday stood wicket and steady the match, scoring 86 runs. The final target is good, and the New Zealand women's team looked confident winning the match considering the opening situation. Chasing target always seems to have pressure. Mandhana did her role well, and everyone followed the same and contributed to the win, making 232 runs easily reachable.
As yesterday there was the match between India women and New Zealand women, the game was very interesting and also important because the team who won that match would win the series and India won the series including yesterday's match.
In this match, Deepti Sharma played very good and she raised her position in the one day women ranking, she got the second position now. In women’s one day bowling ranking she is rising and able to get the first position but have to wait for it. Right now, in the first number here is S Ecclestone from England and behind her there is Indian Deepti Sharma.

Yesterday Nepal had their second win during the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2, when they defeated Scotland at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas. They are still at the bottom of the points table with just two wins from 10 matches. On the other hand, Scotland is slightly better, but they also have only 5 wins from 9 matches. A win during yesterday's game was crucial for Scotland to move up (currently they are at the 4th position behind Canada, USA and Netherlands).
you are right Nepal's batting order is weak. I would say there are quite a few good batsmen in Nepal's squad. However, none of the batsmen in the squad is able to play well consistently. So if Scotland gives a target of 150 runs it will also be a big target for Nepal. But even then I would say if the target is less than 200 there is a chance for Nepal to win.

This match will be tough for most of India women as they lost the second match to New Zealand women but New Zealand women have improved and due to this they will win the third and final match to clinch the series as well.Obviously, when each match is equal, the interest of who will win the series in the third match will surely arise. And many bets will be placed on it but I have more hope on New Zealand women which match they will definitely win tomorrow.If India Women's batsmen bat first, they should be given a target of at least 270 then they will win the match. Or if New Zealand women will bat, they will also have to give such a target.They should work more hard on their bowling because they will make good targets but it will be difficult for them to pressure and stop runs from bowling and this is the main character that will help them to win the match.
Yes next match between India Women and New Zealand Women will be very exciting. New Zealand played better in second match and now has good chance of winning. New Zealand recent success gives them advantage. This makes it likely they will win third match and series too. And you are right I also think India Women to win their batsmen need to score at least 270 runs if they bat first. If New Zealand bats first India needs to stop them from scoring much. But India bowling needs to get better to stop New Zealand from scoring easily and put pressure on their batsmen.
Nepal had the match under their complete control when they reduced Scotland to 88/6. But then Mark Watt added some valuable runs towards the end, and he was supported by Matthew Cross and Brad Wheal. Now the target for Nepal is 155, which should be attainable for them. Sandeep Lamichhane was the star for Nepal today, as he picked up 3 wickets. The pace triad of Gulsan Jha, Karan KC and Karan KC shared six wickets between them. Nepal has so far won just 1 out of 9 matches they have played in ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2.
I was very wrong in predicting the last match but it was easier this time as Scotland got all out for 154. Scotland started slow and lost their wickets on regular intervals. Just one player from Scotland, that too a bowler Mark Watt reached a score over 20. Nepal's batting too was not as good as last match and the highest partnership that won them the game was from the 6th wicket where Arif Sheikh made 51 and Gulsan Jha 25. Nepal won by 5 wickets with 20.1 overs remaining. The League 2, every team plays 36 match and its currently 10th match for Nepal. There are plenty more but the associate teams are equally good.
Yes you are right next match between India Women and New Zealand Women will be very exciting. New Zealand played better in second match and I think they will perform well again. And their recent wins put them in good position to win last match of series. I think if New Zealand will play first so if they will make 250 runs so this will be enough runs for India Women. And India bowling needs to get much better to stop New Zealand from scoring easily and put pressure on their batsmen.
Well it's look like an easy task for new Zealand team to beat Indian women team as they already won thier previous match so they expect to does same will be get same results but surprisingly the indian main batter and oppner r.mandhana does extra ordinary performance when team really need it and through his vital century they give extra confidence to his team which really push his team on right track to victory later thier captain kaur follow his steps and build a partnership alongside with his partner which really help them to absorb any kind of pressure and thus out of no where they make a comeback and won the series by 2-1 which is great achievement for them because at the same time thier men team are brutally punishing by new Zealand team at home ground hope that victory will give them motivation to comeback in last match and Atleast safe his country dignity. New Zealand Women's Team vs India Women's Team 3rd ODI Match tomorrow two teams will meet, and it will be very important for both teams to win the match. We have seen that in the last two matches the series results of both the teams are equal, and they are 1-1 so both the teams will try to play much better in the third match. The team that wins the third ODI match will be able to win the ODI series, but we expect this match to be interesting for sure. If India Women's team can perform well against New Zealand Women's team then they will have a chance to win, moreover New Zealand team is currently performing very well. If the New Zealand team can improve their game and play a strong game against the India women's team, they will have a chance to win. Moreover, since the series is still tied between the two teams, both teams will play their best to win the series, but here I guess New Zealand women's team has a lot of chances to win the series.
All three one day matches of this competition which was played among Indian Women and New Zealand Women squad were finished with This last third match, this competition were fully completed. Before playing this third match, this competition has equal number of victory on both side and both squad won each match total of two. In third last match Indian women squad against New Zealand women squad, New Zealand has begun this match with batting Inning and their performance in this inning was super amazing with good number of scores they managed. But in second innings of their bowling, bowlers did not support squad fully and did not defend their scores. Smriti Mandhana batter of Indian squad, she played vital role in this victory by achieving 100 scores. Harmanpreet Kaur also made amazing fifty for their squad and Indian women is winner of this competition and they emerged victorious in last match by 6 wickets and 34 balls.

Right now, most of us are thinking that Scotland may not be able to make a decent total, but we forget that Nepal's batting line-up isn't so good, and on a day, Scotland may defend a score as low as 150 runs.
Also, this is a 50 overs game, so we never know if the Scotland can regroup themselves later in the innings and there may be some power hitters at the end of the innings to pick up some quick scores. All Scotland have to do now, is to not lose any more wickets until the 35th over and then a launchpad will be ready for them. A lot is expected from Richie Berrington and Michael Jones at the moment.
you are right Nepal's batting order is weak. I would say there are quite a few good batsmen in Nepal's squad. However, none of the batsmen in the squad is able to play well consistently. So if Scotland gives a target of 150 runs it will also be a big target for Nepal. But even then I would say if the target is less than 200 there is a chance for Nepal to win.
The pitch is not batting friendly. Scotland managed to collect 91 runs in 27 overs, losing 6 wickets. Scotland team may be able to collect 130+. However, it cannot be said for sure whether Scotland will be able to collect more than 150. Nepalese bowlers Sompal Kami and Karan are bowling well today. Karan managed to pick up two wickets for just 19 runs in 7 overs. And Sompal Kami conceded just 12 runs in 5 overs.
I didn't think that the New Zealand women's team could make such a big collection in today's match. Because we don't see good performance from New Zealand's top order batsmen in today's match. Still, the New Zealand women's team managed to collect a huge score of 232 runs.
New Zealand lost their 5 wickets for just 88 runs. Brooke Halliday played the most important innings at the crucial moment of the match. Brooke Halliday was able to play an excellent innings of 86 runs from 96 balls. Also Lea Tahuhu collected 24 runs from 14 balls. A total of 232 is enough for victory if New Zealand's bowlers are able to bowl under control.
I was not expecting today as New Zealand have early collapsed they will be able to cross figure of 200+ but they have done good job and have 232 runs which are still not enough to have win in this last game of the series as both teams were on level after two games.New Zealand lost their 5 wickets for just 88 runs. Brooke Halliday played the most important innings at the crucial moment of the match. Brooke Halliday was able to play an excellent innings of 86 runs from 96 balls. Also Lea Tahuhu collected 24 runs from 14 balls. A total of 232 is enough for victory if New Zealand's bowlers are able to bowl under control.
Deepti Sharma done good job and restricted New Zealand on this target now we have Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur both already have 105 runs partnership and Mandhana needs just 5 runs for completing his century with Harmanpreet Kaur crossed half century this good partnership done good job for Team India as they are heading for the win in this match and series as well today we have toss for New Zealand, and they elected to bat first which was good decision, but their batting fail to give them challenging total in this important game.
The New Zealand women's batsmen managed to provide a decent target today. Before collecting 100 runs, the New Zealand team lost 5 important top order batsmen. New Zealand's middle order is not very strong. So my guess was that New Zealand women's team can score 160-180 runs maximum. But due to Brooke Halliday's innings of 86 runs, the New Zealand women's team managed to collect 232 runs. It was a big enough target. New Zealand could have won this match if the bowlers bowled well.
We have not seen good bowling from New Zealand bowlers today. Indian opener Smriti Mandhana also played brilliantly. He scored a century today. Harmanpreet Kaur remained unbeaten on 59 runs. Due to these two innings, the Indian team reached the goal of victory very easily. India reached the target of victory by losing only 4 wickets.
India won the series 2-1. Since New Zealand became t20 world cup champions few days back. So we thought the team would play well in this series. But the performance of New Zealand players in ODI format was not good.
