KATHMANDU, April 7: Nepal ‘A’ is playing against Ireland Wolves in the third and last one-day match today.

The match is scheduled to commence at 9:30 AM at the TU Cricket Ground. Nepal faced a defeat by 21 runs in the first match and a staggering 114 runs in the second match.

In the first encounter, Nepal's chase of 158 runs faltered as they were bundled out for 136 runs. The second match saw Nepal crumbling under pressure, managing only 60 runs in pursuit of a target of 175. Matthew Humphreys proved to be a formidable force, clinching 5 wickets in the first match and 6 in the second.

Nepal's seasoned campaigners Bhim Sarki, Aarif Sheikh, Arjun Saud, and Dev Khanal are under pressure to deliver. Bikas Agri, Rupesh Singh, and Rajint Kumar might see action in the final match. With the series already slipping away, Nepal is determined to prevent a clean sweep, calling for composure and accountability from its batsmen.

Meanwhile, Ireland Wolves are contemplating giving opportunities to players who have been on the sidelines. Having lost both T20 matches against Nepal's senior team, Ireland Wolves are eyeing a strong finish. The T20 series concluded with Nepal 'A' narrowly losing 2-1 in three fiercely contested matches.
