00:00Two without loss.
00:11Nice use of the feet, first boundary of the contest for Bertel.
00:17Brave shot, maybe squeezed off the outer half of the bat.
00:30Use of the feet. He wants to get the game going.
00:35And he's found a way to beat the man at short third.
00:39And he's had enough on it to get to the boundary.
00:44Length has come back there, which is quite predictable after the first couple of deliveries.
00:50And he's a tall man, which is not saying a lot with you and I, Carlos.
00:55Can get the ball to shape out, but use that bounce.
01:01Yeah, he's adjusted well.
01:03Through the first one up there to see if he'll get any swing.
01:06And then you see in that occasion, what we spoke about that man at short third,
01:09potentially being a catcher and forcing the batters to do something.
01:16Gone, first one, gone. Captain strikes.
01:19He does it so often in this phase of the game in T20 internationals.
01:30One of the best new ball bowlers in the world, like you were saying.
01:35He builds pressure.
01:37Keeps the ball in and around that area.
01:39Subtle changes of pace.
01:41Sometimes turns, sometimes swings, but he always asks questions.
01:48And he always forces you to make a decision.
01:50The wrong decision on this occasion by Kushal Bertel.
01:53He goes for six, Nepal, eight, four.
01:59Nice shot.
02:01Bigger boundary over there, but can't be holding.
02:04Lovely shot for Mala to get on his way.
02:11Four of us gone 18 for two.
02:19It's a shot, it's a trademark shot that Rohit Paudel loves.
02:23Those that were part of the West Indies A Tour of Kathmandu last year.
02:27They'll have been having nightmares about that one because Paudel was the top scorer in that series.
02:31He's at it again and he plays it ever so well.
02:36The key to the shot was the head was very still.
02:42Watch the ball hit the bat.
02:44Played it very fine towards fine leg for a boundary.
02:52Whipped away and whipped away with real quality.
02:54Not quite the first maximum, just one bounce and four makes it back to back boundaries.
03:00And the noise starts to reach fever pitch levels here in Sharjah.
03:05That was picked up very nicely on the legs by Rohit Paudel, the captain of Nepal.
03:13Pickup shot towards square leg.
03:14There's no fielder.
03:15Left arm spin, the ball turning into him.
03:19And he loves hitting down the ground.
03:22Just one bounce and it flies for four.
03:25It's the return, the rebirth here of Kushan Mala.
03:28He's into double figures.
03:30That was hit very hard by Kushan Mala, straight down the ground.
03:34A bit in the air.
03:37Hit it straight.
03:39Didn't go to the mid-wicket region.
03:42That is why he connected it so well.
03:44Seeing things or hearing things.
03:47He loves sticking on this left arm spin, Kushan Mala.
03:52That is a six of some proportions.
03:56If you've known Kushan Mala and his batting, his intent,
04:00this is not something that you don't see often.
04:03He loves hitting this shot on one knee.
04:06Swings his bat real hard.
04:10And the ball gets deposited out of the ground.
04:21As he hit it well enough.
04:22Holder just a spectator.
04:25Another strike from Kushan Mala over the ropes.
04:29Khuzan Mala absolutely living up to his expectation.
04:36He's out of the team for a while.
04:39His confidence was down.
04:41But K has come back really well.
04:43And 30 of 18, he still has a long way to go.
04:46But shots like these will give you so much of confidence.
04:50So much of confidence.
04:59It's gone for one.
05:00Has he connected it well enough?
05:01No.
05:02A very good catch.
05:04And the balling chains actually works.
05:08We get in the very first over for Naveen.
05:10And Kushan Mala's good start has not been converted.
05:16It's a good catch from Jason Holder.
05:18A big man.
05:19A tall man.
05:20He got down very well.
05:21And the first international wicket for Naveen Bedesi.
05:27His year just continues to get better and better.
05:30One of the breakout players of the CPL tournament.
05:34As well as the breakout league.
05:36And Northeast Trinidad.
05:38His parents will be celebrating with him.
05:42A much needed breakthrough.
05:44Mala.
05:45Kushal Mala goes for 30.
05:47It is now 70 for three.
05:49In the European.
05:54Insiders this time.
05:56There is protection.
05:59Ruit Paudel will have to play a very sensible innings here.
06:02He's got the start again 26 of 30.
06:04It has been a cautious innings by Nepal skipper.
06:09At what point of time will Nepal press on the accelerator?
06:14That's the question.
06:16They lost two wickets very early in the innings.
06:19Struck it well enough.
06:20It's the shorter of the two square boundaries.
06:21Just 61 meters.
06:22But a good strike from Paudel.
06:23This was on the cards.
06:24This was certainly on the cards.
06:25A shorter one to Ruit Paudel.
06:26Pulled it well enough.
06:27On the middle of the bat.
06:28And 65 meter six.
06:29Very well struck by Nepal.
06:31Ruit Paudel.
06:32Very well struck by Nepal.

06:59Ruit Paudel.
07:00Ruit Paudel.
07:01why he manipulates the ball into vacant areas so well that'll be for I've got a
07:08man joining me in the commentary box who manipulated the ball to all parts
07:11himself Sharad Vassako good evening to you my friend good evening Andrew a good
07:17shot there behind square by Rohit yeah was drifted down the leg and helped it
07:22on its way using the base and over the short fine fielder 4-4 looks to go the
07:32other way really high-quality batting and what's even better is the running
07:36between the wickets unwell between the wickets manipulate the ball into the
07:40gaps and look for the occasional big one but this time he's hold out and it's two
07:48for the debutante we saw hold a roar when he took the first catch but that's a
07:54big big moment as the captain falls you're going for the big heave went for the
08:00longer side through it would time it well enough was building on well
08:09see their lens ball try to go a mid-wicket I think it's a chemo ghost who's
08:17taking the catch so the debutants are combining in the future looking soon
08:22that's the main day does era time a job tries to go downtown he's got a good piece
08:28of this it just keeps going then going and gone I think long on thought for all
08:35money it was coming straight to him Obed McCoy but the power the strength of
08:40gulshinja muscles it for six long he was coming in handy again gulshinja
08:47there's a swings at heart those long leavers went really high
08:53just over the ropes but they're gonna need plenty more than they have
08:59and I really has those fast hands and they're fast enough to get six didn't
09:04clear deep backward square by much but it cleared him by enough a first maximum for
09:10the vice-captain how did he connect that was just a merry flick behind square timed it
09:18well enough might be big enough from gulshinja he strikes a long ball
09:35this is quality he rocked back so many players would try to hit that through the
09:52leg side but he slapped it straight always aim for that sight screening that he did
09:58tough tough jason holo has another over up his sleeve
10:08no bet mccoy is further out the arc but too far on that occasion
10:14not hit that one well enough just casey carty just he makes simple things look difficult
10:24and this is some debut in senior colors for nabin bedesi his third wicket
10:31he's stuck to his guns bedesi he's kept it wide slam for six couple balls ago but stuck
10:42to it and now rewarded it was a very exciting reward on the end from casey carter he should
10:48have been a regulation but raise your hand and applause young man you've been excellent today on
10:53debut gushan jao was exciting when he lasted 22 he got 109 you win
11:00not hit well enough oh yes it's parried over
11:07i think it might be jewel andrew
11:11i think slightly misjudged ended up being full stretch above his head should be taken at this level
11:27and yet that confirms it falling over for six
11:30so joy for the nepalese fans
11:37and a bit disappointment for obed mccoy
11:42yet to pick up over if he goes wide above stump
11:46because he set that man out there and taken he just shifted
11:51but they see into that straightish extra cover area just before that ball was served up
11:57and the planners work for the excellent jason holder
12:01and that's how to catch jewel andrew and casey carty
12:04the planning has been good from west indies good fuel setting as you mentioned
12:15last ball but this he was sent back and he still stayed five steps off
12:22weary of the two and turned into a catching opportunity jason hold on simmons
12:28kareem gore making an impact
12:41that is a tremendous catch firstly to make the ground and to dive low and laterally
12:51and scoop it up and a smile to boot not from the nepal fans
12:58well he's taking a catch now for two international nations he's played for the usa usa and i'm sure
13:06he's taking a catch there it was outstanding outstanding fabian allen would be proud of that
13:11perhaps west indies best fieler fabian allen he leaves the ground here and he's almost parallel and
13:18in the air when the ball hits his hand that is a standard jason holder saying that is set for the rest of
13:25this tour
13:28holder
13:32another one another one for jason holder he's having a wonderful evening and setting the standard
13:39for the rest of the bowlers and the fielders in the team
13:43this is why jason holder is here folks personal performance he's been exceptional in the caribbean
13:53premier league for a while now and he's leading albeit not as captain but he's showing and setting the
14:03standard
14:07that is a top shot it truly is good ball striking
14:12to use the feet and take that wide side of the field out of click
14:17lots to love about this cut the angle advance down the track give himself slight bit of room
14:33on the advance and able to pongo it straight down the field for maximum
14:38there's more room wide for obed mccord that's uh fear should have been root 20 overs now completed
14:48and nepal ended 148 in kits they'll have their work cut out for them because they're a team that is
15:00starting or trying to reintegrate as a west in these team
15:05parish and whereas nepal and their conglomeration have played together more often and
15:14are more familiar in their rules so for kyle mayors with all his experience it'll be a tester in trying
15:21to get to 149. yes it will be but uh saying that nepal will have to bowl very well restrict uh
15:29western days for under 148. i think it's going to be defender singh ready to open the bowling for nepal
15:37off spinner a very accurate option i must say
15:44amir jango one of the openers for west indies and kyle myers we all know how destructive he can be
15:5352 wickets
15:54it's a gap immediately and that could before it is for first ball of the innings a boundary to kyle
16:06mayors it was short and wide nicely hit in between the gap beating the captain at cover point
16:13okay a good start for west indies sharing the t20 internationals for nepal good running between the
16:22direct hit i think it's gotten
16:24the entire body body body body body body body body body body body body body body body body is going
16:30upstairs who shall work there is the feeling that occasion a direct hit is very very close
16:38i think he's gone i would think he's gone by some distance
16:45to one stump to aim at but gone by some distance whereas nepal ran well between the wickets
16:53that was too much to do for kyle mayors and west indies are one down
17:02right debiting to play
17:03slower through the air a good hit down the ground and it's all the way for six
17:17hit it straight down the ground down to long on
17:21one bounce over the fence
17:23it's one of the advantages when you're playing against a short skinny bowler who's perhaps fast
17:33medium if you bat out of your crease
17:39that is top-notch from akima geese following amir jango in this over so far
17:45this is what uh they are known for the west indians they go big hard current casey again
17:56not getting his length right in this occasion
18:00fuller picked it in picked it on the up
18:05went through the shot
18:09this one goes straight up depender singarene nestles underneath it
18:13he's never dropping that and nandanyara from the physio worked the mother's advice worked
18:19stay in the blue and red of nepal you've got higher duties ahead of you and he gets the second
18:25wicket to fall a good slower one there and comfortably taken by dipendra
18:33trying to get under the ball yeah you could see the roll of the fingers
18:36miss timed it straight up in the air and it was easy take by dipendra
18:44and he gets the breakthrough more opportunity than this game
18:50not the right line and just helped around the corner good shots very well placed by amir jango
18:56camby has not adjusted well there to the left-hander and that's really a free hit down the leg side
19:01it was bowling well before this ball that was drifted down the leg easy pickings there
19:11just picked up off his left special people said well hold on it should be whites
19:16this goes a long way up now long on he's going to be in play and takes the catch just inside the rope
19:24jorah does enough andrew never looks settled out there it's a good change of bowling the captain
19:31probably wanted the left-hander he'll get the right the fans dancing in the stands nepal of three
19:37and the captain gets the breakthrough and we're going for that big shot down the ground
19:43didn't connect well enough
19:47and the crowd jumping in the stands you could see he boiled it slow went straight after pitching couldn't
19:54time it well and a very neat catch there by zora just ahead a few yards ahead of the rope
20:02i think it's an outstanding catch he's made it look easy it's the end of jewel andrew gone for five
20:07chance again could be number four here's number four this youth in the western knees top order
20:22in alliance with the experience of mayors being overrun by nepal
20:27favorite now to come and work miracles
20:40dong chong
20:43step hit for casey karty the shackles have been broken somewhat
20:49anyway on griffith the head coach of this team knows they need more close enough in length
20:54might have been an arm ball that he tried to slide across him
20:59as he pull his length back at all now four to five years has been their death bowling
21:07joined by sachin timosina has another chance created
21:12and tiger says yes
21:14depender singh i read it again i'm not sure west indies are learning their lessons you do not run one to him
21:22can this be the second run out he got one earlier he got one earlier listen to the roar
21:34and it's that man again he impacts the game in three dimensions the tiger himself does it once more
21:42to pender singh i read you cannot run one anywhere in his vicinity and it's the big one too casey karty
21:53he's gone for 16
21:56and the west indies in real bother the pressure
22:01jason holder might just have given it away he's hit it straight to row at kumar pedal
22:06nepal's heroes standing tall on the biggest of stages for them and it's bertel with his first that might
22:16just have swung this game heavily back towards the himalayas
22:20can you please believe jason holder the important man they've got this wicket he needed it 76 for six
22:31devise certainty on top the fans already celebrating he could not get this to the middle of his bat jason
22:40and an easy catch eventually for the skipper
22:42and isn't he pumped up and all some trademark copycat celebrations come out nepal in dreamland holders the
22:51latest to go for five 76 or six
23:12so
23:21so
23:23so
23:25so
23:35so
23:37So, here we go.
24:07The highest on to the richest peak, the top of the tier, highest peaks in the middle.
24:25This is a long day in the western least, the part of the tier right now.
24:37The top is going to be 12 feet from the final zone, so 1-2-1-3.
26:0724 needed.
26:09Game's still alive, Fish.
26:11Game's still alive.

26:52Game.
26:53We made this thing free and it's going to be a game that so many people will remember.
27:23With the ball and in the field, history on the brink and a historic moment for Nepal and their team and their country is completed with some excellence on the boundary.
27:49Their first victory over a full member nation in this format of the game ever.
27:56And the farm in Gilead for many back in their nation and those around the world.
28:04We will just check the completion and the legitimacy of the hatch.
28:19This decision will work.
28:27This is going to be a mental performance as you can get.
28:34There is a two tight jump here.
28:38All that's happening at home.
28:40We will see the history of Sharjah.
28:51We will match the names of his remaining.
28:56This is the destination of Victoria.

29:03It's going to be quite a lot of fun and fun and fun again.
29:07It's going to be a part of the adventure.
29:11It's going to be a part of the adventure.
29:14Ironic that that piece of feeling and athleticism there
29:18should be the final nail in the quarter
29:21against the whole Ember Nation.
29:23They have completed a victory
29:25and we want all of us here to put the quad in the commentary box.
