Match 3 of the Nepal Tri-Nations Cup will see Nepal lock horns with Malaysia at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur.

Malaysia squared off against the Netherlands on Sunday, with the latter having called the right side of the coin post which they elected to bat first. They scored 191/2 courtesy of the unbeaten century scored by Max O'Dowd (133* off 73).

In reply, Malaysia's middle-order batsman, Virandeep Singh, stood firm and contributed 87 runs to his teams' tally. Lack of support from the other batters saw them put up only 176 runs, and as a result, they ended up on the losing side.

Pitch Report

The track in Kirtipur has produced equally fair contests between the bat and ball. Bowlers have struggled to pick up wickets early on, but they've gone on to perform well as they get familiar with the conditions.

Batsmen have enjoyed scoring runs at this venue with shorter boundaries on offer coming to their aid. Teams have struggled to chase huge totals at this venue, a statistic that would tempt the captains to bat first and post a score of around 190-200.
