Al Amerat Cricket Ground

Nepal and the United Arab Emirates will lock horns with each other in the first semi-final of the ACC Men’s Premier Cup, 2024 at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1), Al Amerat, on April 19, 2024 (Friday), at 11:30 AM IST. While Nepal are undisputably the best Associate team in Asia at the moment, they can expect a strong challenge from the United Arab Emirates, who have won three out of their four games to secure a place in the semi-final.

Nepal vs United Arab Emirates Chance of Winning

Nepal have won all four games in the group stage matches to make sure their semi-final place was not dependent on any extraneous factors. So dominant were they that in none of the four games did they have to break a sweat. It will be a real surprise if the Rohit Paudel-led side don’t bring their best to the semi-final.

On the other hand, Nepal will be aware what the Mohammad Waseem-led United Arab Emirates are capable of. The skipper himself is enjoying a golden run of form whereas the likes of Aayan Khan, Omid Rahman, and Alishan Sharafu are delivering the goods for the team. They are now a well-oiled unit - hence, we can expect a tough encounter between both sides.

Nepal vs United Arab Emirates Betting Tips

You can’t not bet on Alishan Sharafu, for his consistency in run-scoring has been one of the major reasons behind them dominating the proceedings with an iron fist. Skipper Muhammad Waseem also stands apart with his ability to take down any opposition by the might of his batting. Nepal’s Aasif Sheikh doesn’t spare any bowler along the way - so you can spare some money to be bet on him.

UAE’s opening partnership to be more than 23.5 runs @ 1.85 (Parimatch)

As an opening pair, they have averaged 36 runs in the last couple of years - which is really great.
