KATHMANDU, Nov 29: Nepal national men's volleyball team which had suffered a loss in its first match against Bangladesh is playing against its strong contender India at the 13th South Asian Games (SAG) on Friday afternoon.

Nepal is under pressure to create a win against India to make it to the next round. India started its SAG campaign thrashing Bangladesh in straight sets 3-0 earlier on Thursday.

The match is being held at the National Sport's Council's covered hall at 5 pm.

Under men's category, Sri Lanka will play against the Maldives in the second match.

Similarly, under women's category, two matches are scheduled. In the first match, India and Bangladesh are vying while Sri Lanka will lock their horns against the Maldives in the second match.

Sri Lanka and the Maldives have already advanced to the semifinals from Group 'B' since Pakistan is not participating in the category.
