Kathmandu (Hamro Khelkud) – Nepal skipper Rohit Paudel has won the toss and opted to bowl first in the second ICC Cricket World Cup League Two encounter against the Netherlands. Nepal, after having an abysmal show against Namibia after batting first, will be chasing in the second encounter.
Fresh from his arrival from the UAE, Dipendra Singh Airee makes it into the XI straight away. Dev Khanal also gets the nod. Pawan Sarraf and Karan KC are the ones replaced.
Nepal could only register 132 runs on board against Namibia and suffered a four-wicket loss in the League Two opener.
