Kathmandu, Nov. 15 -- Nepal's Under-19 cricket team suffered a two-wicket defeat against India 'B' in their last league match at the Men's Under-19 One Day Challenger Trophy being held in the southern Indian city of Vijayawada on Friday.

India 'B', which elected to field, chased their modest target of 211 runs, losing eight wickets in 46.3 overs. The hosts, however, suffered hiccups early into the chase. Siddesh Ashok Veer (1) and Yash Vijay Dhull (6) fell cheaply, as India B found themselves tottering at 15-2 in the fourth over.

Sagar Dahiya (28) and Harsh Jamwal (29), steadied the Indian innings, but both batsmen fell in quick succession as the Nepali bowlers tightened the screws on India 'B', reducing them to 69-4 in the 18th over. ...
