Nepal beat Tanzania by 10 wickets to claim third position in the Pepsi ICC World Cricket League Division 4 at Medicina, Italy on Saturday.
Nepal bowled out Tanzania for 73 in 39.3 overs and the openers – Anil Mandal (47 not out) and Mahesh Chhetri (24 not out) raced the team to target in 12.3 overs.
During a league match, Tanzania defended 117 to beat Nepal by nine runs – a surprise result that put Nepal out of the finals and promotion to Division 3.
Tanzania elected to bat first. The openers added 19 before Binod Das and Amrit Bhattarai took a wicket each in space of four balls to make it 19/2. Bhattarai added one more wicket as Abdallah edged to wicketkeeper Mahesh Chhetri.
It was then the slow bowling that made hard for Tanzania. Shakti Gauchan led the bowling with 3/10 in his 9 overs while Basant Regmi got 2/15 and Rahul Biswokarma claimed the topscorer Kikasi who made 32 off 72 balls. The only other batsman to score double-digit was opener Kiongozi (12).
Mehboob Alam also got a wicket castling stumps of Nassoro.

hey,guys true fans are those who support the team in bad times too,you cannot always expect to win,our team does not consist player who are gods,anything can happen in cricket,nobody wants to lose when playing for the nation.and we fans don’t deserve to comment and criticize the players so much,what have we guys done personally to develop or change the situation of cricket in the country,except for cheering them.if you really need things to change,we should go and pressurize CAN,have to protest against them,why don’t we send email to can@cricketnepal.org,its their official email id,and number is 014420925,you can get the president there in the ph after 5 in the eve,why don’t we ask him questions?
