Nepal, having 3 win from 4 matches ends up runner up in Group A of the ACC T20 Cup game with Hongkong leading the group whereas UAE leads the other group with Afghanistan as runner up. Earlier Nepal lost to Hongkong and won against Maldives and Malaysia. After beating Singapore by 121 runs on Sunday at TU Kirtipur Ground, Nepal not only heads to semi-final of this tournament but also gets the ticket to UAE to play ICC T20 World Cup 2014 Cricket qualifiers.16 team will be taking part in qualifiers where they only have to be in the Top six to be selected for Twenty20 World Cup 2014 in Bangladesh. Nepal seems to be good contender for the top six as we had improved a lot since the last qualifiers in Srilanka where we ended up in the seventh position when only two teams were taken to the T20 World Cup 2012. Altogether 16 teams (10 test playing nations + top 6 from the qualifiers will be playing the T20 World Cup 2014 in Bangladesh, which is up from 12 team last time at T20 World Cup 2012.
Nepal now take on UAE and Hongkong will meet Afghanistan for the Semi-final of the ACC T20, on Tuesday (April 2, 2013) at TU Cricket Stadium, Kirtipur. Though Nepal will try their best to beat UAE and again beat the other winner (Hongkong Vs Afghanistan) to be the Winner of ACC T20 being held in our country, this matches is gonna be a good rehearsal for the ICC T20 World Cup Qualifiers.
Good Luck Nepal Cricket Team.
