It's time for the national anthems and the players walk out to the middle. An excellent crowd and a big chunk of them are supporters who've settled down or travelled from Nepal.

Thank you for not opening prediction window :)

Bhurtel and Aasif Sheikh are at the crease. Bhurtel is on strike. Kingma will open the attack

Tim Pringle to Aasif Sheikh, out Caught by Kingma!! Caught at short third man, dropped short and just outside off - was tossed up on a good length area outside off, Sheikh backed away and was then looking to go over cover, the shot was on, but he's went a tad too hard, slices a thick edge and it's a straightforward catch to Kingma. Aasif Sheikh c Kingma b Tim Pringle 4(8) [4s-1]

Tim Pringle to Aasif Sheikh, THATS OUT!! Caught!!
