Nepal Stun West Indies For Historic First Win In T20I Over A Full Member
International Cricket Council: Nepal made international T20 history on Saturday by defeating the West Indies by 19 runs in the first match of the three-match T20I series, registering their first win against a full-member of the International Cricket Council (ICC).
With their bowlers striking blows at regular intervals against a West Indies side which was without some of its big guns, Nepal surged to a historic 19-run victory. As a result, Nepal took a 1-0 lead in the three-match series, with the second T20I scheduled for September 29.
In a match played at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, the West Indies won the toss and elected to field first against the Associate Member team. They restricted Nepal to a modest score of 148/8, which the side from the Himalayas compiled riding on vital contributions by their middle order.
