Nepal Vs Vanuatu

In today's game of Nepal Vs Vanuatu in ICC U19 world cup qualifier, Nepal has won the toss and choose to bat, scored 250 runs in 49.3 over with the help of half century of Sagar Pun (51) and Naresh Budayair (50). On chasing the target of the 251, Vanuatu seems to be weak. Five of the batsman returned to the Pavilion without any score. Nepali Bowlers Rahul Vishwakarma, Krishna Karki and Bhuvan Karki shared 4 , 3 and 2 wicket respectively. Another wicket is taken  by Pritu Baskota. So Vanuatu is limited to 91 in 30.5 over.
Player of the match is Bhuvan Karki (20 run not out and 2 wicket with 9 run in 6 over)

So far, Nepal has 6 points from the 4 and still there are 5 more matches in the series (I have already posted match schedule). Hope Nepal will do well for the rest also.
