They were defeated by a colossal 92 runs the last time they stepped out in the middle with their horrendous batting display leaving them gasping at 182 in pursuit of 277.

NEP Vs USA Dream11 Wicket-Keeper
With 35 runs in the previous encounter, Binod Bhandari from Nepal will continue to hold a spot in our Dream 11 for this forthcoming encounter. He’s been extremely consistent with the bat and up against a side which will collapse with the bat, he’s going to come good in his role behind the wickets as well.
NEP Vs USA Dream11 Batsmen
He’s paired alongside the side’s captain with Gyanendra Malla piling on 56 runs in the foregone encounter for Nepal. Elsewhere, from USA we are moving in with a tenacious duo, one which comprises of Aaron Jones who remained unbeaten on 47 runs the last time around for his side with Steven Taylor partnering him up owing to his dual toned nature as a player.
NEP Vs USA Dream11 All-Rounders
With 28 runs in his kitty the last time around, we’ll be making Ian Holland our first pick from USA alongside Nisarg Patel who top scored for his side in the same fixture with 52 invaluable runs down the lower middle-order for his side. Elsewhere, Nepal are represented by a reminiscent duo, one which comprised of Paras Khadka after his 38 run knock in the previous tie and Kushal Malla who got 28 runs.
NEP Vs USA Dream11 Bowling Order
If USA are to have any chance of mustering up an elusive win come today, they’ll need to come up with wickets at regular intervals. And two players who are capable of doing that are Cameron Stevenson and Rusty Theron with Rusty returning with three wickets the last time he took to the middle.
Elsewhere, KC Karan has massively perturbed the bats with his wicket to wicket line and length, one which has seen him send down ominous deliveries with immense deviations to see him complete our side for the encounter.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Holland captains our side with Malla being the vice-captain.
