Dutta is run out and it's Paras with the direct hit from mid-on... it was always going to be a dangerous single and with Paras hitting direct he was out by a long way 157/744.3 bowled'm! Dillon Heyliger looks for the big one...swings massively aiming for wide long-on but fails to make contact and the ball crashes in to the stumps.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.5 gone! short delivery outside the off stump, ball just stood up there to be hit and Malla does exactly that but unfortunately hits it straight to the Canada captain at short midwicket. That ball was travelling at great speed and Kumar does well to hold on to it. Nepal one down 22/121.2 and so it happened! short delivery outside the off stump, Cecil Pervez really tearing in... Nath has a poke at it and end up with an edge to the keeper. Canada appeal with confidence but the umpire takes his time...but finally the finger did go up. 72/37 Paras Khadka goes first ball! another shot ball, not as fast as the previous one - Paras goes for the pull but mis-times it big time and the ball floats up straight to the fielder at cover! that is a big big wicket for Canada. 22/225 pitched up and that's hit straight back to the bowler who laps it up with ease. Nepal 5 down and in deep trouble here. 81/522.1 gone! loose delivery outside the off stump, Vesawkar has a go at it outside the off stump - a nothing shot and the ball loops up towards point where the sub fielder dives to his left and takes a good catch 73/442.1 another one bites the dust! quick delivery outside the off stump, Aarif gets beaten outside the off stump and the keeper whips off the bails. Loud appeal for LBW and the umpire thinks that Aarif dragged his foot outside the line 144/937.2 not this time! Canada get the breakthrough they were looking for! another short ball outside the off stump, this one was tad slower and Paudel once again goes for the pull and this time he mis-times it every worse than the previous shot and ends up scooping the ball to the fielder at mid-on 127/640.5 Sompal is a goner! harmless delivery outside the off stump and Sompal hits across and straight to Gunasekera at short midwicket... he doesn't drop those. Canada edge a head here 142/741.4 Dillon Heyliger has been a bit wayward but gets this one spot on... get it in the corridor outside the off stump and Basant just edges it straight to the keeper. 144/8Extras19 (lb 3, w 16)TOTAL195/9 (50 Overs, RR: 3.9)Fall of wickets: 1-22 (Gyanendra Malla, 6.5 ov), 2-22 (Paras Khadka, 6.6 ov), 3-72 (Dilip Nath, 21.2 ov), 4-73 (Sharad Vesawkar, 22.1 ov), 5-81 (Dipendra Singh Airee, 24.6 ov), 6-127 (Rohit Paudel, 37.2 ov), 7-142 (Sompal Kami, 40.5 ov), 8-144 (Basant Regmi, 41.4 ov), 9-144 (Aarif Sheikh, 42.1 ov)
