Nepal registered a nine-run victory over UAE in their rain-curtailed ICC Cricket World Cup League Two match on Thursday in Kirtipur. Opting to bat first, UAE posted 310/6 in 50 overs after Asif Khan smashed an unbeaten 101 off just 42 balls. Apart from him, Vriitya Aravind and skipper Muhammad Waseem scored 94 and 63 runs respectively. Later, Nepal scored 269/6 in 44 overs, before rain played a spoilsport and the Rohit Paudel-led was declared as the winners by nine runs due to the DLS method. Apart from such a high-scoring action, one thing which became a major highlight of the day was the great enthusiasm of the fans.
