Nepal Vs Oman, ICC T20 World Cup East Asia Pacific Qualifier: Kushal Bhurtel Stars As NEP Beat OMN By 38 Runs

Kushal Bhurtel's 69 alongside Gulshan Jha's three-for helped Nepal beat Oman by 38 runs in their Men’s T20 World Cup East Asia Pacific Qualifier 2025 at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground (Ministry Turf 1) on Wednesday (October 15).

Earlier, Nepal skipper Rohit Paudel had won the toss and elected to bat first against Oman in match 17 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup East Asia Pacific Qualifier 2025.

Bhurtel was the only batter with some runs under his belt as Nadeem Khan ran through the Nepali batting. Oman restricted Nepal to 151/9 in 20 overs.

In reply, Oman batters just could not handle the Nepali bowling with Gulshan Jhan impressing with the ball. His 3/31 did all the damage for Oman with Vinayak Shukla (31) being the only batter with some credit under his belt.
