Match 6 of the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers 2023 will be played between Nepal and the United States Of America at the Takashinga Sports Club in Harare. Nepal lost their first match of CWC Qualifiers against the host Zimbabwe, while the United States of America were beaten by two-time World Cup champions West Indies in their first game. Both teams will be eager for their first win of the tournament and this promises to be an interesting match to watch out for.

Nepal openers stunned everyone by adding 171 run partnership for the first wicket against Zimbabwe. Wellington Masakadza dismissed Kushal Bhurtel on 99 runs and picked the wicket of another opener, Aasif Sheikh.  Nepal posted 290 runs for the loss of eight wickets in 50 overs. Zimbabwe's Skipper Craig Ervine's 121* (128) and Sean Williams' 102* (70) guided Zimbabwe towards victory by 8 wickets with 35 balls to spare. Ervine and Williams outplayed Nepal bowlers completely.

The United States of America fell short of the target by 39 runs against West Indies in their previous game. The USA started well as they dismissed Brandon King and Kyle Mayers early. But contributions from the other batters helped West Indies reach a total of 297 runs. Kyle Mayers picked up wickets of Steven Taylor and Monank Patel. Gajanand Singh scored his maiden ODI hundred but it wasn't enough for the victory. The USA managed to score 258 runs for the loss of seven wickets in 50 overs.
