ACC Men’s Premier Cup 2023, Match 19, Nepal vs Qatar: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Weather Forecast, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details

Nepal will be locking horns against Qatar in the 19th match of ACC Men’s Premier Cup 2023. The high-octane contest will take place at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur.

Nepal are unbeaten in the competition so far. They beat Malaysia comprehensively in their opening game and followed it by coming out on top against Oman in their next game. They didn’t get any chance to win three games in a row as their game against Saudi Arabia was washed out due to rain.

Nepal and Saudi Arabia shared a point each as the entire match was called off due to persistent rain. Nepal have five points to their name and are placed at the top of the points table. They will look to finish the league stages on a winning note when they face Qatar on Thursday (April 27).

Qatar, on the other hand, are really struggling in ACC Men’s Premier Cup 2023. They have played three games so far and are yet to register a win. Nothing has worked for them so far and they are languishing at the bottom of the points table. They lost to Malaysia in their previous fixture.

The game was reduced to 35 overs per side. Qatar batted first and posted 215 on the board, thanks to contributions from Imal Liyanage (56), Khurram Shahzad (41) and Ikramullah Khan (39). The bowlers tried hard and took the game to the last over but failed to hold their nerves as the Malaysian side got across the line with five balls to spare. Qatar need to fire in unison to finish the competition on a high.
