Nepal and Sri Lanka had to share points in their respective Super Four fixture with heavy rain washing away the ninth game of the ongoing U-19 Women’s T20 Asia Cup at the Bayuemas Cricket Oval in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. (More Cricket News)
A super heavy downpour in Kuala Lumpur meant just one over got underway on Thursday, and the game was called off.
The washout leaves both the teams with a point each, but Nepal will be the more disappointed side, after winning the toss and the decision paying dividends in the very first over when they picked up a wicket.
Sri Lanka will next take on India on Friday, December 20 at 7:00 AM (IST), while Nepal will battle it out against Bangladesh at 11:30 AM on the same day.
