Nepal book ticket for World Cup Qualifiers after beating UAE

Agency :
Nepal on Thursday confirmed their spot for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup as they defeated the UAE side in the final match of the triangular series of the World Cup League 2. The Nepalese team overcame a tough UAE challenge at the TU cricket ground by 9 runs (D/L method). They have leapfrogged Namibia to take the third spot in the Cricket World Cup League 2 to make it to the qualifiers.
UAE posted a big total of 311 on the board as Asif Khan made a historic century despite coming out to bat in the 38th over. Nepal did well to stay in contention of the chase but were jolted with regular wickets. When they needed 42 from 36 balls with half-centurion Gulsan Jha in the middle, the play was stopped due to bad light and it did not resume. Nepal were 9 runs ahead at the stoppage and were declared winners.
