Nepal will take on Bangladesh in their concluding group-stage match of the T20 World Cup 2024. This encounter, marking Nepal's last appearance in this edition of the tournament, comes after their hopes for advancing to the Super 8 stage were dashed.
Match Details:
- Fixture: Bangladesh vs Nepal – Group D
- Date: June 17 (Monday)
- Venue: Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown, St Vincent
- Time: 5:15 AM (NST)
This match is notable as it brings Nepal and Bangladesh together on the cricket field for the first time in a decade. Their previous meeting was in the 2014 T20 World Cup, where Bangladesh emerged victorious with an eight-wicket win. This fixture will be only the second T20I face-off between the two nations.
For Nepal, this match will be their seventh T20I against a Test-playing nation. Their past encounters include matches against Bangladesh, Ireland, Zimbabwe, India, Sri Lanka, and South Africa. Unfortunately, Nepal has yet to secure a victory against any Test-playing team in both T20Is and ODIs. While they did defeat Afghanistan in the 2014 T20 World Cup, Afghanistan was not a Test-playing nation at that time.
Nepal's journey in the tournament saw a narrow one-run loss to South Africa, which sealed their elimination from the Super 8 contention. The team began their campaign with a close defeat against the Netherlands, followed by an abandoned game against Sri Lanka due to rain.
