Catch OUT. OUT! Caught. Junaid Siddique to Dipendra Singh Airee. Reverse Swing-In length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on, caught by Sharma. That brings us to the end of the first innings, and Nepal managed to post a decent total on the board. Much of the credit goes to Dipendra Singh Airee, who anchored the innings brilliantly with a well-compiled 75, guiding his side out of early trouble despite only limited support from the rest of the batting lineup. In contrast, the United Arab Emirates made an excellent start with the ball, striking three crucial blows during the powerplay and maintaining consistent pressure through disciplined bowling. Their ability to control the middle overs ensured Nepal couldn't fully capitalise on the platform. Join us back for the run chase shortly.
