Match Details:

The 4th match of Men’s Cricket in the 2019 South Asian Games will be played between Nepal and Bhutan at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur.

The match starts at 9:15 AM local time (3:15 AM GMT) (8:45 AM IST).

Preview:

Nepal and Bhutan, both the sides lost their opening games and would be eager to grab two important points in the upcoming match.

Nepal has a strong batting line up with the likes of Dipendra Singh Airee, Paras Khadka and Gyanendra Malla. In the previous match, Airee also played a brilliant knock of 72 runs off 44 balls but his effort went to vain as his team lost a close match against Sri Lanka Under-23 in the last over. However, they would be eager to come with some performances to outclass Bhutan.

Bhutan didn’t get off to a great start to their tournament and faced a big defeat against Sri Lanka Under-23. They need to come with some more effort if they are looking forward to outclass strong-looking Nepal. Moreover, they need to fill up the voids in their batting line up ahead of the upcoming match.

Weather Condition/Report:

The Wednesday morning will witness low temperatures in Kirtipur but no rain is in the forecast during the match timings. However, the temperature is expected to deviate between 22 and 25 Degree Celsius according to Accuweather.


Pitch Condition/Report:

The Tribhuvan University Ground in Kirtipur is expected to go in favour of batsmen with bowlers have nothing much to gain at this venue in the early stage of the match. In the second half of the innings, the spinners might get some assistance from the wicket. However, the team winning the toss is expected to bat because the teams have found it difficult to chase at this venue.

Expert Advice:

Paras Khadka is one of the best batsmen in Nepal side but he failed in scoring runs in the opening game. He is a brilliant opener and on his best days, he can play the bowlers all across the park. He can be a dangerous pick but will be worth for any Grand League side.

Teams make changes in their playing XIs at the last moment due to some forced or unforced reasons. While most of the players from the aforementioned teams will play, it would be wise to wait for the playing XIs to be confirmed.
