Get ready for an exciting showdown as Hong Kong (HK) faces off against Nepal (NEP) in Match 2 of the Nepal T20I Triangular Series, set against the backdrop of the Mulpani Cricket Ground, Kathmandu. In this thrilling triangular series featuring Hong Kong, Nepal, and the United Arab Emirates, the competition is bound to be fierce. With the head-to-head battle standing at a nail-biting 1-1 tie between Hong Kong and Nepal, anticipation is running high.

Hong Kong's last T20I encounter saw them lock horns with Pakistan in the Asia Games. Despite a valiant effort, Pakistan emerged victorious, clinching the game by a margin of 68 runs. Babar Hayat's gritty 29-run contribution, backed by Ayush Shukla's four-wicket haul and Mohammad Ghazanfar's three wickets, showcased Hong Kong's mettle on the field.

In a riveting contest, Nepal emerged triumphant, securing a convincing seven-wicket win. Rohit Paudel's stellar 51-run performance and Karan KC's impactful three-wicket haul were instrumental in Nepal's success.
