1st Semi Final Match: Nepal vs Kuwait
Nepal who was at the top of their group with no loss in their name will face Kuwait in 1st Semi Final Game of 2023 ACC Premiere Cup. In their 4 matches Nepal manage to win 3 games and ended 1 Game in No Result against Saudi Arabia due to rain. Home nation is backed by huge crowd support which has led them to go through the semi final without loosing a single game.
The 4th and last game of group stage against Qatar was quite dramatic as Nepal manage to score just 157 runs but their bowlers did a great job. Qatar might be hoping to win the game but was rattled by the spin attack of Nepal and manage to score just 89 runs. Nepal won the game by 68 runs.
In both batting and bowling Nepal has improved a lot since the assignment of new head coach Monty Desai. Under his supervision Nepal has won 12 games out of 13 to qualify for World Cup Qualifier which will be played in June 2023 in Zimbabwe.
