Nepali Team enters the finale of ACC U-19 Elite Cup cricket tournament today (Tuesday) by beating Qatar by 6 wickets at AIT Ground in Bangkok. This had opened the doors for Nepali team to global Youth World Cup (ICC U-19 World Cup).
Nepal stole the game and reached the victory target of 114 in 20 overs as Naresh Budayer scored unbeaten 41 and Pradeep Airee hit two sixes.
Nepal will now face Afghanistan (the same country that had beaten Nepal in semifinal, two years ago) in the final at TCG on 10th of February. If won, this will be the fifth time Nepal will win the title.
Brief scorecard: Qatar 113 all out in 47 overs (Saad Khan 26, Omar Istiaq 22*, Rahul BK 4/20, Bhuwan Karki 2/12) lost to Nepal 119 for 4 in 20 overs (Naresh Budayer 41*, Sagar Pun 36, Faljur Khan 19, Pradeep Airee 12*) by 6 wickets.
With all good news, our captain Prithu Baskota has been injured and wouldn’t make it to the finale. He will have to rest for three weeks to heal the ligament he tore during the match.
Well done Nepali Team! You have made all of us proud. The title should be ours now! We wish you all the best for the finale.
Hi Pradeep,
I’m writing on behalf of the Managing Editor of a soon-to-be-launched cricket vertical, which is a joint venture of the Zee Group and an American media giant. Our cricket vertical will have lots of cricketers writing for us, besides established writers. However, we are also giving space for bloggers and others who would like to share their views and/or blog on cricket.
Would you be interested in posting your writings on our website? If you do wish to share, kindly let me know. We are not paying fan bloggers for non-exclusive articles, but what we would undoubtedly give them is instant recognition on a big platform alongside big names – something that is not possible as a stand-alone blogger or merely commenting on social media like Facebook and Twitter. Moreover, we intend leverage the written stuff across social media platforms. And that means getting your writings across to much bigger audience and
thus getting new readers to your blog – if you are a blogger.
If we find that any blogger is writing insightfully and is drawing a huge following, we could then commission him/her to write exclusive articles for which they would be paid.
Do let me know your thoughts.
Cheers,
Devarchit Varma
