van der Merwe 以 L Rajbanshi
Wicket. OUT! L.B.W. Roelof van der Merwe to Lalit Rajbanshi. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, hit pad. That's the end of the innings, and Nepal have posted a below-par total of 157. They struggled early on, with the top order failing to provide a strong foundation. Dipendra Singh Airee, Aarif Sheikh, and Gulshan Jha offered some resistance in the middle order, but their efforts weren't enough to build a competitive total. The Netherlands bowled with great discipline, maintaining pressure throughout the innings. Alex Roy and Roelof van der Merwe were the pick of the bowlers, claiming three wickets each. The Netherlands now need 158 runs to win, setting up an intriguing run chase ahead.
