Yesterday match of Top End series played and Pakistan won game 1 runs. Pakistan is a strong team and have a amazing gameplay and their players are also strong. Pakistan totally set a runs for 144 and won the match by 1 runs . Nepal chased a total runs for 143 and lost the match. Pakistan played a good match their performance was very good in all previous matches. I hope Nepal they will play better in the next match. It is a very disappointed thing that Nepal. The 30th match between Pakistan and Nepal was played at Marrara Cricket Ground No 2 . Pakistan won the toss and elected to batting first. Congratulations to Pakistan for their upcoming matches. The best batting performance in the Pakistan man team was by Irfan Khan scored 42 runs and 26 balls hitting 3 fours and 1 sixs.

This was a match that could have been won by Nepal. But once again, they lost as a result of poor planning and captaincy. At one point, Pakistan was struggling at 74/7. But then Nepal allowed them to reach 144/9 in the next 7.3 overs. Their bowlers leaked a lot of runs during the depth overs, and dropped catches further made matters worse. And while batting, the openers (Aasif Sheikh and Kushal Bhurtel) wasted too many balls during the initial powerplay, which made it impossible for the middle order batsmen to chase down the target.
