Nepal vs Hong Kong Chance Winning

Nepal and Hong Kong will face off in this Group A fixture of ACC Men's Premier Cup 2024 on Monday afternoon. Both teams won their opening game of the tournament, woh Nepal beating Malaysia by five wickets and Hong Kong smashing Qatar by 26 runs.

Nepal were asked to bowl first by Malaysia and their bowlers could not make enough inroads. Dipendra Singh Airee bowled an exceptional spell, where he conceded just 14 in four overs and picked two wickets. Abinash Bohara picked 1 for 28 in his four overs but the rest of the attack was ineffective. But thanks to Airee’s spell, Nepal managed to restrict Malaysia to 143.

Chasing the target, Kushal Bhurtel and Aasif Sheikh got them off to a 49-run opening stand. Bhurtel made a run-a-ball 24 while Sheikh scored 32 off 35. Rohit Paudel struck 28 off 24 but Airee was again the difference maker with his 20 in just 11. Gulsan Jha smashed 19 not-out in 7 balls to finish the game.

Hong Kong batted first against Qatar but had a horrible start as they lost both the openers for just 10 runs. Captain Nizakat Khan and Babar Hayat recovered the innings with a 92-run stand. Nizakat scored 59 off 37 while Babar hit 55 off 39. Aizaz Khan then blasted 37 in 14 deliveries to help the team get 201 in 20 overs.

Defending the target, a couple of Hong Kong bowlers went for runs but the rest did a good job. Ehsan Khan was the pick of the bowlers, with 4 for 31 in four overs. Dhananjay Rao bagged 1 for 9 in his two overs while Yasim Murtaza snared 1 for 20 in four as they restricted the opponents to 175.

Talking about this encounter, the two are matched pretty well and there is not much to separate them. Check out the two teams' chances of winning this game.

Nepal vs Hong Kong Toss Prediction

In T20 cricket at this level, the teams generally tend to bat first as the scoreboard pressure often gets to them while chasing. In the ongoing tournament, all matches are being played at the same venue and that means batting could get harder as the match progresses. Expect the team winning the toss to bat first in this game.

Weather Report

The forecast suggests the weather in Al Amerat, Oman could be partly sunny and humid. There is a 100% cloud cover expected but rain is unlikely to be a big threat with only around a 7% chance of precipitation.
