Nepal beat Scotland by seven wickets in a Twenty20 World Cup Group C dead rubber in Mumbai on Tuesday as the Himalayan side signed off from the tournament with a memorable victory, Reuters reported.
Both teams were already packing their bags after the West Indies and England had sealed progress to the Super Eight, but that did not stop Nepal’s fans from turning up in numbers to create a party atmosphere at the Wankhede Stadium.
Chasing 171 for their first victory of the tournament, Nepal got there with four balls to spare thanks to Dipendra Singh Airee’s explosive unbeaten 50 off 23 balls, according to Reuters.
