Pitch Report

With the tournament heading into its final phase, the spinners are coming into play more often. Chasing at this venue has been the preferred option, and it will not be any different on Friday. With the scores getting lower and lower, expect the bowlers to have a field day, as the batters will find it tough to get going.

Player Picks

Dipendra Singh Airee NEP | ALL

The last few months, Nepal cricket has given the world one of the most destructive batters in the form of Dipendra Singh Airee. The 24-year-old has scored 84 runs from the 2 innings he has batted so far with an average of 42 and a strike rate of 262.5. Dipendra Singh Airee has also been good with the ball picking 6 wickets so far.

C

Alishan Sharafu UAE | BAT

21-year-old UAE Batting star Alishan Sharafu’s star has been on the rise in the last few months. The right-handed batter has scored two half-centuries out of the three innings he has batted so far. With a total of 168 runs from 3 matches with an average of 56, Sharafu holds the key for UAE if they have to make it to the finals.

8

Asif Sheikh NEP | WK

Nepal have found a consistent star with the bat in the form of Aasif Sheikh. The 22-year-old has scored 124 runs from 3 matches with a best of 52 and his strike rate has also been above 200 making him a dangerous customer for the opposition bowlers.

8.5

Waseem Muhammad UAE | BAT

One of the most experienced players in the UAE side, Muhammad Waseem who is the skipper of the team has been in good nick. After starting with a first ball duck in the first game, Waseem has scored 110 runs from his next two outings and has given his team good starts with the bat.

8

Rohit Kumar Paudel NEP | BAT

Nepal’s skipper hasn’t scored the big runs that he is known for but the blade of Rohit Paudel has been active. 71 runs from three matches has been crucial towards the march to the final four stages of the tournament.

8

Aayan Khan UAE | ALL

The 18-year-old left-arm spinner was the best bowler for UAE in their last match against Cambodia. With figures of 3/7 from 4 overs Ayaan played a key role in UAE winning the game by 9 wickets to enter the semi-finals.

8.5

Karan KC

NEP | BOWL

The 32-year-old is one of the most experienced of the Nepal bowlers but his performances in this campaign haven’t been great. With just two wickets so far, the bowling form of Karan KC will be a matter of concern for his team.

5.5

Vishnu Sukumaran

UAE | BAT

UAE batter Vishnu Sukumaran has been a huge let-down with the bat this series. 19 runs from 3 matches with an average of 6 and a strike rate of just above 100 doesn’t reveal the true potential the 33-year-old has with the bat
