Nepal fail Hong Kong test at ACC Men’s Premier Cup, once again

Nepal have never won against Hong Kong in the tournament. On Tuesday, they fell short by 15 runs.

Nepal had got off to a flying start at the ACC Men’s Premier Cup, having won their first three matches. All of those fixtures were a cakewalk for the young Nepali squad. On August 31, Nepal bundled out Bahrain for a paltry 87 and chased it down with 29 overs to spare. On September 3, they overcame Malaysia’s target of 104 with 28 overs to spare. Three days later, the Rhinos defeated Saudi Arabia by five wickets.
