Nepal vs Italy Chance of Winning

Nepal almost managed a stunning upset in the opening game against England. They bowled first in the last game and conceded 184 runs. Nepal batters batted brilliantly in the run chase but eventually fell short as they lost the game by four runs. Nepal would be hoping to register first points in this game.

Italy headed into this campaign as underdogs and they had a disappointing start to the campaign as they lost the opening game against Scotland. Italy lost their captain and his fitness would be a big concern. As per our calculations, Nepal are favourites in the upcoming game.

  • Nepal’ chances of winning - 77%
  • Italy’ chances of winning - 23%

Nepal vs Italy Prediction & Tips 2026

Aasif Sheikh struggled to make an impact in the last game but that doesn’t change the fact he has been brilliant in this format and scored 394 runs last year which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Benjamin Manenti headed into this tournament as one of the key players for Italy in this tournament and in the opening game he scored a brilliant half century which makes us believe he will do well in the upcoming game.
