KATHMANDU, Oct 11: Nepal faces Canada today in the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2. The match at Al Amerat in Oman will begin at 11:45 a.m. Nepal time.
Both teams sit in the middle of the League 2 standings. Canada is sixth with 25 points from 33 matches, while Nepal is seventh with 24 points from 32 games. Both see today’s match as an opportunity to improve their position and secure sixth place to retain One Day International (ODI) status.
CAN bids farewell to Nepali National Cricket team for ICC World...
Nepal has won two of its past five matches and lost three. Canada, meanwhile, has lost all five of its most recent games. That form could give Nepal a psychological advantage, although a competitive contest is expected.
With every result carrying weight in Nepal’s League 2 campaign, the team will aim to beat Canada and add to its points tally. Playing away from home, Nepal will need an improved performance in batting, bowling and fielding.
A victory today would lift Nepal above Canada in the standings, making the match an important step in its bid to retain ODI status.
