NEP vs UAE Team Previews
Nepal
Nepal has been clinical in its performance so far and has won all the 3 matches it has played so far, including one against the UAE. It has already booked a place in Friday’s final.
Nepal will bank on its strong batting line-up to post a big total. Kushal Bhurtel and Aasif Sheikh are likely to start the proceedings with the bat. Bhurtel is one of the most successful batsmen for Nepal in the shortest format but is yet to play a big inning in this series.
Aasif Sheikh has got a couple of good starts and will look to capitalize on them. Kushal Malla is in excellent touch as he scored a brilliant 92 in the last match. He will be supported by Rohit Paudel, Dipendra Singh Airee, and Sompal Kami in the middle order. Kami has done well with the ball as well, picking up 5 wickets.
He has given good support to Karan KC, who is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament with 9 wickets. Lalit Rajbanshi and Pratis GC were playing their first match of the series on Saturday and picked up 1 wicket each. The team does seem a bit lacking in the spin department.
Nepal Playing 11
Kushal Bhurtel, Aasif Sheikh, Kushal Malla, Rohit Kumar Paudel, Dipendra Singh Airee, Sundeep Jora, Gulsan Jha, Sompal Kami, Karan KC, Abinash Bohara, Bibek Yadav.
United Arab Emirates
After losing its opening fixture against Nepal, the UAE made a comeback of sorts by defeating Hong Kong on Sunday. However, the team will need to play better as the hosts are a much stronger team.
Muhammad Waseem and Khalid Shah put up a strong partnership in the last match, adding 65 runs for the opening wicket. Waseem was in an especially belligerent mood as he slammed 40 of just 17 deliveries. Vriitya Aravind makes a comeback to the squad and adds heft to the middle-order batting.
He will have the support of Basil Hameed, Asif Khan, and Alishan Sharafu. Hameed is the top-scorer for UAE in this series with 62 runs in 2 matches. Zahoor Khan bowled an excellent spell against Hong Kong to pick up 3 wickets.
He will be the way key bowler for the team with the new ball and will be joined by Ali Naseer and Jawadullah at the other end. Nilansh Keswani and Jash Giyanani will take care of the spin department.
