Netherlands Beat Nepal By Four Wickets In Tri-nation Series Final
TU International Cricket Ground: The Netherlands won the tri-nation series on Tuesday beating Nepal by four wickets in the final at the TU International Cricket Ground. Facing a daunting target of 185 set by Nepal, the Netherlands showcased resilience and determination as they reached a total of 189/6 with just four wickets in hand, sealing their triumph in a pulsating finish.
Opener Michael Levitt led the charge for the Dutch side with a scintillating knock of 54 runs off a mere 29 balls, ably supported by middle-order batsman Sybrand Engelbrecht who contributed 48 runs in 29 deliveries.
Earlier in the match, Nepal had reached a challenging score of 184/8 after winning the toss and electing to bat first. Opener Ashif Sheikh provided a solid start with a brisk 47 runs off 37 balls, laying the foundation for a competitive total. However, despite valiant efforts from Gulshan Jha (34 off 24), Kushal Malla (26 off 11), and captain Rohit Paudel (25 off 19), Nepal found themselves losing momentum in the death overs, losing four crucial wickets in quick succession.
