ICC WCL Div 5.

Nepal now enters the most important phase of the tournament after regular minnow bashing in the league rounds. Nepal will play much media hyped Afghanistan, who was thought to be the tournamnet favourite till they were soundly beaten by Singapore. Afghanistans place in the semis are courtesy of media hype, weather fortunes and mismanagement. Singapore deserved to be in semis after having such a great tournament.

Nepal is still unbeaten and group leader of their team. The team lead by two Ds' (Dias, the coach and Das, the captain) are still to be tested. Nepal have a decent performance against USA, the only team which challaned Nepal seriously but the score is still to be settled as weather didnot allowed USA to bat.

However, Nepals problem of batting is still unsolved. Gyanandra Malla is at prime form and Alam is helping with bat a lot but other major batsman have not yet clicked yet. Nepal have depth in batting, as Das and B Regmi are regular 8 & 9 numbers. Paresh Lohani and Shakti Gauchan havent performed a lot with bat and Shakti isnt contributing a lot with ball either. Given the way Alam is taking wickets and Das stopping the run flow, any team at this level would have major problem in scoring 200 against Nepal.

Lets hope, Nepal to reach the finals which will open the door to Division 4, which is one step closer to World Cup 2011. I hope to see five sub-continental team ( Ind, Pak, Sri, B'desh and Nepal) in the 2011 WC.

Best of Luck to both RHINOS and the TALIBANS.

Another wicket, 7 down.

I should predict the other way around. Alam and Das's partnership will yield 20 runs in 11 overs. la jaa ta

तिते पाती तिते पाती झ्याप झ्याप झ्याप्!!!

Required rate is 5. Still have hope. Go Alam Go

Ke tite paati ..  dai

Aalu Jasto .. aba ..

Two ko required run rate lai five ma puryaune batsmen haru dhanya chan.

Now Alam/Binod...just do it.

 

We nepal have habit of winning close matches. We should take advantage of that. Once it gets close there are chances that there will be fielding and bowling lapses from Afganistan.

 क्रिकेट मा नि हाल ठीक छैन। ज्ञानेन्द्र र पारस दुबै खेलेका, शाह हुन भनेर त्यताबाट नि लखेटे। भुलेर नि आफ्नो सन्तान को नाम ज्ञानेन्द्र र पारस न राख्नु होला, गाम्लेहरु हो। कती गए नि सुख हुन्न।

:(

Sathi ho . 2015 ko world cup qualification ko lagi tayari garau aba. May be we will see Nepal playing in Australia and Newzeland in the world cup 2015.

.Jhoorai bhayechha yaar!!

Kaam garna ni mann laagena!!

Yeah! 2015 World Cup now!

difficult task from hereon... if Das can hit some boundaries it would get closer otherwise it is not looking great for us.

I wonder what the pitch condition is. Looks like the ball is not coming onto the bat. It is a low scoring conditions - it seems.

Let us hope that guys get closer to the target to take a chance at achieving it.

what is the latest score? har jit/ probability?

अब नयाँ गीत गाउनु पर्ला,

हार हरुको माला लगाउ , जित हरुको जुत्ता।
एक म्याच जित्दैमा भुइमा थिएन खुट्टा।

so now three wicket-taking bowlers have their quota done.  I see that they sud have waited till the short change bowlers come on to bowl to take some risky shot. Alam got out to mid-wicket heave. That too after getting a life a ball before.... Hmmmm.

all Popeye's fault..

harni bhaye mula haru.

6 over to go.. I think they sud start playing their shots before the RR gets too high.

It is like go for it time. Otherwise it is too late.

शुक्रबार खेल राख्नै नहुने। आयोजकहरुको घोर षड्यन्त्र हो यो। मुशल्तेहरु संग शुक्रबार अल्लाहा को सल्लाह साथ मा हुन्छ भन्ने थाहा हुँदा हुँदै यसरी खेल खेलाइनु दरबार को षड्यन्त्र पक्कै हुनु पर्छ। ( प्रचण्डे को वक्तब्यको नमूना)

We are chockers like South Africa.
