NEP vs UAE Live Cricket Score

6.3 OUT! TAKEN! Sandeep Lamichhane strikes in his very first over. He tosses up a leg-break, full and on middle, turns away a bit. Aryansh Sharma gets stuck in his crease and tries to play with a straight bat in front of the stumps. It spins and takes the outside edge before lobbing towardsa backward point, where Rohit Paudel dives forward to take a fine catch. Sharma walks back for 25 off 17, and UAE are 42/2 now. 42/2

0.5 OUT! TIMBER! Karan KC strikes back and he knocks over the UAE skipper. Fullish length around off, a hint of movement as well. Muhammad Waseem lunges to drive but his feet go nowhere. Waseem ends up getting a big inside edge that goes back on to castle into the stumps. Karan is delighted and that is a big wicket early on for Nepal. 7/1

10 OUT! CASTLED! Dipendra Singh Airee gets his man eventually. He fires this one full and on middle, angling in. Muhammad Zohaib looks to play the big slog across the line, but gets nowhere near the ball as it goes through and rattles the stumps. Sharafu, on the other end, is not happy with his partner playing that shot. United Arab Emirates are three down now. 60/3

11.3 OUT! ALISHAN SHARAFU IS RUN OUT! There was never a single there and Alishan Sharafu was probably just eager to get back on strike. Sandeep Lamichhane bowls another flatter googly on off. Harshit Kaushik presses back and dabs it down to the right of backward point. Dipendra Singh Airee, probably Nepal's best fielder, gets around quickly and nails the direct hit at the keeper's end. Sharafu puts in a dive but it goes in vain and UAE are 66/5. 66/5

11.2 OUT! LBW! A prolonged appeal from Sandeep Lamichhane and eventually, the umpire's finger does go up. Googly from Sandeep, pushed through quicker towards the stumps. Mayank Kumar gets a big stride in and looks to flick but the ball beats the inside edge and pings him on the front pad. It did look pretty straight and Kumar has to walk back after a short stay at the crease. 66/4

19 OUT! TAKEN! Karan KC finally breaks the budding 68-run stand. He hits the length hard, on middle. Harshit Kaushik backs away and tries to swat it away but gets hurried. He miscues the shot off the outer half of the bat over the bowler's head. Kushal Bhurtel from mid off, runs a long way to his left and takes a good catch. Kaushik walks back for a fine 35 off 24 balls, and UAE are 134/6. 134/6

1.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a start for Rohid! He drops it short on middle, hurries the batter with a sharp pace, and it skids through. Bhurtel rocks back, looking to clout it across the line, but only finds a thin nick through to the keeper, Aryansh Sharma. Early dent for Nepal as their star opener makes the long walk back. 136 needed off 110 balls. 10/1

3.2 OUT! SHEIKH IS RUN OUT! Full around off, Paudel drops it gently to mid off and takes off, then suddenly hits the brakes. Aasif has already committed and is stranded. Harshit swoops in and nails a direct hit at the bowler's end, and the non-striker is miles short. A cruel way to go for Sheikh, pure mix-up and nothing else. 128 needed off 100 balls. 18/2

6.5 OUT! ROHIT IS RUN OUT! Poetic, and painfully so. Tossed up, full on middle, Paudel sweeps it towards short fine and calls for the run. His partner responds before changing his mind. Rohit turns late and is caught in no-man's land. Rohid is sharp, fires in a flat throw, the keeper does the rest and the bails are whipped off. Given run out, and Rohit tastes the same medicine he served earlier to Aasif Sheikh. 101 needed off 79 balls. 45/3
