On the offensive side, Kushal Bhurtel anchored the Nepalese chase with a commanding innings of 65 runs. This performance ensured Nepal remained ahead of the required scoring rate when play was ultimately halted. The victory solidifies Nepal's momentum as they look toward upcoming regional cricket competitions.

This victory marks a significant milestone for Nepal's cricket program as they continue to assert their dominance in regional T20 tournaments.
