comes forward to drive, mid-off parries but the run's there and Nizakat, coming down the track jumps and punches the air with glee.
Nepal vs Hong Kong, Group A at Kirtipur, Mar 27 2013 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Nepal were bossed out of the match by a Hong Kong team that performed to their best. Hard to pick a Man of the Match but maybe, as ACC Development Officer Rumesh Ratayake the former Sri Lankan fast-bowler's the Match Referee, he'll choose a bowler. In which case it's going to be Hong Kong's Nadeem Ahmed who took 3-18. However it was his brother Irfan along with Waqas Barkat and then Nizakat Khan who made a potentially tricky chase look easy who deserve team honours too. Group A in this event is now wide open!
Nirmal: "A twist in the tale at the tail? A little too late I think...." If Nepal had 30 more runs to swing with...
Hong Kong want five runs, Nepal want six wickets
fizzes off the pitch, lands on a length, on off and middle, batsman fishing and takes the edge.
Seems that the verbals of the Nepal wicket-keeper are upsetting the batsmen. Umpires having to step in.
tries the scoop again, hurries off the wicket, bounces too and leg-stump's knocked back. End of an excellent innings. Pressure situations seem to bring out the best in him
Dil-scooped leg-side, they run three but Umpire Imran Haji says there's one short
Nizakat just launches into a ball that lands on the sweet spot in front of him, in the air for a long time and long-on and long-off interested. Hits the sightscreen ten feet up
