This is the same thing happening with Nepal everytime. For 74 runs Nepal lost the sixth wicket. From there Nepal team have progressed and won the match by 3 wickets and 12 balls left. For Papua New Guinea everyone played evenly, but with Nepal it is the opener Aasif Sheikh 86* runs and Sandeep Lamichhane 35* runs. If one have lost their wicket earlier Nepal would've lost the match. Nepal continues its winning streak. Opening and the tail is performing a s the contribution from the middle order is nil.
Yes.. it was a lucky win for Nepal. Now they have kept their hopes alive. In the points table, there is a good chance that they maybe able to overtake the United States. Nepal has 5 more matches remaining and in case they win 3 of them, then they can finish ahead of USA at 36 points (US is having 35 points). But the bigger threat is from the United Arab Emirates. They have 6 matches remaining and are at 31 points. If they win just 3 of these matches, then they can finish ahead of Nepal. Anyway, all the remaining matches are crucial, because the final standing in the points table will decide who gets more funding from the ICC.
And congratulations to England, for their comprehensive victory against Bangladesh. They won by a massive margin of 132 runs. Bangladesh was never in the picture. After the partnership between Jason Roy and Jos Buttler, it was the turn of Moeen Ali and Sam Curran. And in the second innings Bangladesh could never keep up with the required run rate, as they were losing wickets regularly.
