Pre-Match Analysis:
Zimbabwe who missed out on Qualifying for the 2019 World Cup are aiming to secure a spot for this year’s showpiece event which is going to be held in India. Craig Ervine will continue to lead the side that has talented stars in their line-up with the likes of Ryal Burl, Sean Williams, Wesley Madhevere and Sikandar Raza. They played a couple of bilateral ODI series this year where they settled for a 1-1 draw against Ireland and followed by a 2-1 win over the Netherlands. Playing in front of their home fans will give them an extra advantage.
Nepal has thoroughly enjoyed their journey this year in the 50-over format. They have been beaten only once in their last 16 ODIs. They crowned champions in the ACC Men’s Premier Cup beating UAE in the finals by 7 wickets last month. They got massive success under the leadership of Rohit Paudel this year and he will continue to lead the side in this Qualifying event. They are likely to stick to their usual game plan and don’t want to make too many changes to their side. Kushal Bhurtel, Sandeep Lamichhane, Kushal Malla and Asif Sheikh are the prominent players in the line-up.
