Nepali players are not batting as badly as UAE batsmen. Had UAE been able to deliver a target of even 160 on this pitch, it would have been a good enough collection to contend with. But victory is not possible with a target of only 118 runs. Nepal lost their first three batsmen very quickly. They lost three wickets for just 22 runs. But Gulsan Jha and Bhim Sharki are doing the responsible batting. At the moment, Nepal's collection is 94 runs. The team needs only 24 runs to win. Gulsan Jha scored 49 runs and Bhim Sharki scored 23 runs to remain unbeaten.

Congratulations to the Nepali team on this remarkable victory and qualifying for Asia Cup. Nepal won by 7 wickets ACC Premier Cup final Champion team What an incredible performance by Nepal in the finals. Despite losing their top order quickly, Gulsan Jha 67 runs and Bhim Sharki 36 runs not out responsible batting led the team to a comfortable victory. the Player of the Match award for his outstanding performance Gulshan Jha for his destructive knock of 67 runs and the crucial wicket that helped Nepal lift the trophy with a thumping win against UAE.
Nepal cricket team has made significant progress in cricket in recent times and also achieved several significant achievements. This team qualified for the ICC World T20 tournament in 2014, they achieved one -day international (ODI) in the 2018. Everyone in this team was determine on the game. As a result, their cricket easily looked by cricket world. Their performance in yesterday's match was great. They restricted the United Arab Emirates in just 117 and by chasing only losing 3 wickets the got the win. In their victory, they went one step further in world cricket.

It was actually really great to see so much support for the Nepal cricket team. I have to say to the ICC that this is what happens when a team with native players plays well and shows promise. This type of support was never going to be shown to a team that is made up of foreign players. And that is exactly the reason why we see a big difference between the support of Nepal and the UAE. I understand that it is not the ground of UAE. It is the home ground of Nepal.

I disagree with the last part.

Two months back, there was a match between Nepal and the United Arab Emirates which was a part of the 2019–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup League 2. There were thousands of fans attending this match. And despite the fact that the matches were being played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, I could not find a single UAE supporter. All of the spectators were supporting Nepal (mostly migrant workers from that country). And this is the sad reality for teams with no native players (such as the UAE). Not even the players are interested in winning the matches, because they themselves are supporters of India and Pakistan. And none of the UAE citizens are interested in these matches, because according to them the team is comprised of a bunch of Indians and Pakistanis.

Tens of thousands of Nepal cricket fans at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur staying on behind heavy rain. The final match of the ACC Men's Premier Cup is currently ongoing between Nepal and the United Arab Emirates. You will never find any fans for United Arab Emirates, because they don't have any nationals in their team.

It will be a great injustice to the Nepal fans in case this match gets washed out. Because right now, UAE is at 106/9 after 27.3 overs. Without the rains, Nepal would have won already.

The match is with Nepal team. Nowhere it is possible to see such a level of support from the audience. Even at the heavy rain thousands of audience with umbrella in hands shows how good is their support to the national team. Seeing this scenario surely the Nepal team players will get much more confidence and the spirit to win the finals. I'm sure there won't be injustice sharing the trophy.

The Pakistani team played well in the first two matches of the T20 series. And they won. After winning the first two matches, the Pakistan team could not win the series. One month was abandoned and they lost the remaining two matches. But Pakistan is still very strong in the ODI format. But I would say that the performance of their bowlers is good. Pakistan won both matches only because of the good performance of three batsmen. Babar Azam, opener Fakhar Zaman, and Mohammad Rizwan have performed brilliantly in all three matches. If these three players don't perform well in any match I am sure the Pakistan team will face a bad batting disaster and lose. Pakistan should now think about how to strengthen their bowling line-up.

In last year Pakistan has won only one home series and that is ODI series against Australia last year. Since then all series played in country are either draw or lost by Pakistan. Pakistan was even not able to win T20 series against second tier new zealand team. This is a great opportunity to break there losing streak and win series. 3 more ODIs still to be played and Pakistan need to win just one to grab the series. Seeing the performance of Pakistan its difficult to predict outcome of this series.
That's right, it's hard to predict which team will win a series before the game is over, and it's kind of stupid to make predictions before the game is over.  So far two matches of the ODI series have been played.  Pakistan cricket team won both matches against New Zealand cricket team.  Pakistan cricket team is currently back in form.  If Pakistan cricket team can maintain their performance like this.  Then good things can be expected for Pakistan cricket team in upcoming matches.  Pakistan team players Babar Azam, Rezwan, and Fakir Zaman performed well in the 2nd match of the ODI series.  Fakir Zaman is a popular player in this match.  It is expected that the Pakistan cricket team will be able to give something good to the cricket world in the upcoming matches

I expected better performance from UAE. The UAE team managed to collect only 117 runs. A very poor performance given a target of only 118 runs in 50 overs. I don't think Nepali bowlers are very experienced either. Asif Khan was able to collect maximum of 46 runs for UAE. Besides, we don't see any better performance from any other batsman in the squad. UAE is likely to lose today's match.

Nepal lost the wicket of opener Kushal after collecting 1 run in 1.2 overs. Target is too low. If Nepali batsmen can bat responsibly then they will have no problem in winning this match. They should just try to stay at the crease.
The pitch is offering a lot of assistance to the spinners and the Nepali batsmen are also finding it very hard to score runs. Yesterday, rain started at around 11am. Today also thunderstorms are predicted and that means that Nepal has around 15 overs in their hand. They need to score at 6.5 runs per over, but the current run rate is around 3 per over. And till now, they have lost 2 wickets. Kushal Bhurtel and Aasif Sheikh are gone, with Rohan Mustafa and Aayan Afzal Khan picking up the wickets respectively. Nepal needs to be careful here. If they lose too many wickets, then they will fall behind on DLS par score.

Pakistan is leading two-zero right now. This is of course a great opportunity for them to actually win a series.
After all, Pakistan is being able to get win in those matches which are actually tough.
At the same time, all of these matches also show that Pakistan is being able to overcome the batting problems that they had.
If Pakistan can maintain their consistency then they will be able to win the series. But it is doubtful whether they will be able to do so in the end. In the upcoming match, New Zealand will try their best to win the match and save the series. But this might be Pakistan's last chance otherwise they might lose again. If the series is drawn or lost after 2 consecutive wins in the 5 match series then it is a big failure for the team which is not expected by the Pakistan team.
This was also the case in the T20 series. If Pakistan won the first two matches consecutively, Pakistan created the possibility of that victory, but the Pakistanis failed to fulfill that dream by losing to New Zealand in the next two matches. 

T20 context and ODI context are completely different.  Pakistan's ODI performance is very positive compared to T20 performance. Pakistan is one of the contenders to win the series as they have already proved by winning the first two matches. 
Whether New Zealand's score is relatively low or high, Pakistan reaches its target by batting. We hope that Pakistan will finish with a win against New Zealand tomorrow and it is expected that they will win the series with two matches in hand.

Today's match between United Arab Emirates and Nepal was stopped by 2 umpire decisions due to rain and it was decided to restart tomorrow. In today's match, Nepal cricket team had a chance to easily win against United Arab Emirates. The United Arab Emirates cricket team started batting in the first innings and collected 106 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in 27.3 overs. United Arab Emirates Cricket Team has one more wicket remaining. The bowling line-up of Nepal cricket team is very strong in today's match. United Arab Emirates cricket team was in batting disaster from the start of the game. Unfortunately the weather turned bad after 27.3 overs of play and the match had to be called off. It is expected that Nepal will perform well in tomorrow's match

The final Match resumes UAE set a target of 118 runs for Nepal. It is great to see the passion and talent displayed by both teams in today cricket match despite the rain interruptions. The Nepali bowling line put up an impressive performance with Sandeep Lamichhane leading the way with 4 crucial wickets for just 14 runs. Asif Khan innings of 46 runs provided some much needed stability to the UAE batting line but they were ultimately bowled out for a total of 117 runs in 31 overs, adding only 11 runs to their overnight total. It will be exciting to see if Nepal chase the target win ACC Premier League Final and qualify for Asia Cup.

Good to see a full ground but not all of them would be Nepali. I am sure there would be a few from Bihar & UP states of India that are bordering Nepal. Obviously, you won't find fans from UAE because they are crazy about Football and not Cricket. Give it some time and you will find them in the stadium next time.

Are you out of your mind? I am from India, and till now I haven't met anyone from UP/Bihar who supports Nepal. UP guys are mostly neutral on Nepal (there maybe some sympathy due to religion factor), while Biharis are very anti-Nepal due to the refusal by Nepal government to grant citizenship to the Madhesis. They blockaded the roads back in 2015, to prevent the transport of medicines during the Gorkha earthquake. Why should any of them travel to hundreds of miles to support the Nepal team?

Today Nepal has greater chances of winning with UAE disastrous batting . Nepal balling was brilliant and they didn't let UAE stand on crease for long .
Match will continue from where it stopped or it will start all over again ? 

From my understanding, the match will resume from where it was stopped. And it is supposed to start in 45 minutes (8:45am Indian time).

Pakistan has a great chance here. They really should look forward to keeping the momentum strong. I honestly feel like if they don't keep performing well they will actually lose the momentum and consistency. And New Zealand might be able to take advantage of that.


We shouldn't downgrade a team. Even before the second ODI match there were more discussion that New Zealand will do its best. Same as that New Zealand did it's best, and Pakistan outperformed with their performance. Both the matches weren't an easy chase. The targets were really good and in the second match once after the innings of New Zealand it is said Pakistan will win the match. What happened at the last, comfortable win. In the upcoming matches too we can expect similar results.

There is no reason for anyone to say that New Zealand is not going to be able to win. And I absolutely agree that there is no reason to underestimate New Zealand because after all it is New Zealand we are talking about. They can beat any team at any given time. And Pakistan can really lose the match and probably also the series if there start underestimating New Zealand

Yes you are right. Nepal is looking much stronger as compare to the United Arab Emirates. At this time Rain is taking interest in this match. Otherwise 90% chances are in the favor of Nepal's team because the score is only 106 and the UAE lost 9 wickets. By the way let see when the rain will stop and the match will start.
Nipal has an 80% chance to win UAE lost 9 wickets with a score of 106 runs in 27 overs. From Nipal L. Rajbanshi picks up 3 wickets just giving 5 runs in 4.5 overs and Karan Kc also picks up 2 wickets brilliant performance with the ball. Despite persistent rain leading to the Grand Final being called off for the day Nepal must feel confident after their dominant performance in the first innings. Winning the toss and reducing UAE to 106/9 in 27.3 overs was an impressive feat. It will be exciting to see if Nepal can continue their bright form tomorrow and secure their spot in the ICC ODI world cup

UAE scored 109 runs in 27.3 overs and lost 9 wickets before rain come in to resuce them. Play has been called off because of rain and don't know whether there is another reserve day for final or not.
Asif Khan saved UAE from humiliation by scoring 46 runs otherwise UAE would be all out under 75 runs in the final. Nepal with this performance deserves a chance to play icc ODI world cup.

Nepal is clearly in stronger position as UAE already lost 9 wickets on just 106 runs , hopefully rain stops in time and Nepal get to bat to chase this tiny target and wins the Premier Cup. 
That's right really unfair for Nepal fans they were eagerly waiting for their team to win this cup.
