Nepal U-19 Bowler Suffers Freak Injury During Wicket Celebration - Watch

Nepal cricket team bowler Yuvraj Khatri suffered a freak injury during the U-19 Asia Cup encounter against Bangladesh. Yuvraj was in brilliant form in the match as he picked up four wickets but his happiness soon turned into sadness as he got injured while celebrating a wicket. During the match, Yuvraj first emulated South Africa cricketer Tabraiz Shamsi's shoe celebration before mimicking Imran Tahir's running celebration after taking his fourth wicket. However, while running, he ended up twisting his left foot and fell to the ground. He had to be carried out of the ground by his teammates and Nepal ended up losing the match as Bangladesh chased down the target with five wickets to spare.

Meanwhile, Mohamed Amaan led from the front with an unbeaten century, while KP Karthikeya and opener Ayush Mhatre made fifties to hand India a comfortable 211-run victory over minnows Japan.

Amaan slammed an unbeaten 122 off just 118 balls, a knock studded with only seven boundaries after India were invited to bat.

Besides Amaan, Karthikeya made 57 off 49 balls with the help of five fours and one six, while Mhatre's fiery 29-ball 54-run knock featured six boundaries and four hits over the fence.

C Andre Siddarth (38), Hardik Raj (25 not out), and Vaibhav Suryavanshi (23) also played useful knocks to help India post a mammoth 339 for 6 in their 50 overs.

Hugo Kelly (2/42) and Kiefer Yamamoto-Lake (2/84) took two wickets each for Japan.

It was an easy outing for the Indians, as they restricted Japan to 128 for 8, securing their first win in Group A.

However, the Indians will be a little disappointed, as
