Nepal in a roll to qualify
for 2013 Division Three and final with impressive run rate of +2.465 wining all four matches. Nepal maintained their winning run in the tournament with a 32-run win over USA at the Kinrara Oval in Kualalumpur.
The star of Nepal's fourth consecutive win was 19-year old opener Subash Khakurel, who scored only the second century ever in WCL division 4. Khakurel's 115 was ably supported by contributions from the top order and although Nepal lost quick wickets towards the end, they managed to put up 258 on board.
USA were kept alive in the by Sushil Nadkarni's 84, but a five-wicket haul by Basanta Regmi ensured that Nepal held on to the top spot in the points table.
Khakurel, who was declared Man of the Match, said: "I'm feeling great after scoring this century because I was a bit worried due to the swing from the pace bowlers at the beginning, but I managed to build my confidence by picking lots of singles and build from there."
