Nepal Vs UAE LIVE Cricket Score, ICC T20 World Cup 2026 Warm-Up Match: NEP’s Karan KC Rocks Waseem, Breaks Opening Stand

Harshit Kaushik is settling in! First, he pulls off a sweet four to backward square leg, and then nudges a single to long-on. The partnership with Sohaib Khan is ticking along nicely now, and UAE are trying to rebuild after losing a couple of quick wickets. Nepal’s bowlers will need to stay sharp to keep the pressure on.

Mayank Kumar is trapped LBW by Lamichhane for 4 off 3, Nepal’s spin wizard makes the breakthrough and the bowler is pumped.

And immediately after, Alishan Sharafu is run out by Dipendra Singh, what a sharp piece of fielding! Sharafu makes 12 off 18 and is back in the pavilion. Nepal are on fire with the ball and the fielding, keeping UAE under pressure.

Aryansh Sharma showing his class! Back-to-back shots from the youngster, first a cracking four to extra cover, and then he goes big over long-off for a SIX off Sher Malla! Nepal are getting some serious momentum here, and the crowd is loving every boundary.

Nepal strike early! Karan KC delivers a beauty and sends Muhammad Waseem packing, bowled. Waseem went for 6 off 4, hitting just one six, but couldn’t survive Karan’s sharp bowling. Nepal celebrate the breakthrough, and the UAE opener walks back to the pavilion looking frustrated.
