In the recent InterContential Match Nepal off to a steady start at 5/246 at stumps first day. I don't think the result of this match matters too much cus UAE are pretty much in the finals. They have 30 pts and Nepal have 8.5, the most points you can get in a game is 30, but UAE already have 2.5, so if they get another 6.5 then they go through.

Nepal got screwed over by the rains against Hong Kong last week, which didn't help things.

Yeah it didn't help them, but i don't think they would have won anyway and made the finals infront of UAE. But it is nice to see Shakti Gauchan score a fifty, he was the guy that held the Nepal U19 batting line up together to beat RSA U19, in the last youth World Cup. He scored a fifty while everyone else got out around him. The other guy that got a fifty for Nepal yesterday was Sharad Vesawkar, who also part of that U19 side, he got 27 aganist RSA. The future looks good for Nepal with those guys in the middle order. BTW Sharad Vesawkar is still only 16, he made the U19 side at the age of 14, impressive stuff.

Not to forget Nepal has just come back winning under 15 asia cup 2005 held in UAE.
This time the competition was without asian test playing nations nevetheless great achievement for the country.
Unfortunately senior players have not performed well as the U 17 or U 15. World cup qualifying was a disaster to our hopes.
The batting is not impressive except for couple of players like Sakti and Sharad. Bowling and fielding is quite strong.

Stumps Day 2 between Nepal and UAE, has Nepal well on top, they declared their innings at 7/287. Then they went on the dismiss UAE for 164, with Arshad Ali carring his bat scoring 81, Nepal then finished at 2/45, a lead of 168. Im not sure if Nepal's performances will be enough to qualify for the semi but.

I think the below par performances for the senior team is a lot to do with the inexperience of the the side. In this match aganist i think only Raj Pradhan is over 30 and the rest of the guys are under 25, well the guys that have CricInfo pages. The captain of the team is only 22. Once these guys mature they could be an ok side.

Why on earth didn't Nepal enforce the follow on?

I was under the impression that five days = 200 runs, four days = 150 and three days = 100 runs.

Or not. Two days is 100 runs, and three/four days are both 150 runs.

First class matches are very, very rarely played over one day. I think the most likely implementation of that rule will be in Minor Counties games in the past that were played over two days, where ther first day was washed out, and the wicket as a result is a batting nightmare..

Team A 129 all out, Team B 46 all out, follow on.

Nepal win by 173 runs, but miss out on semi spot by 2 runs.

One run, even? Assuming UAE were bowled out for 75 (287 + 125 - 164 - 173 = 75).

That'd give Nepal 32 points, total 40.5 and UAE 11 points, total 41.

If that's the case...ouch!
