Malaysia Vs Nepal Match Preview & Prediction
Malaysia take on Nepal in the 2nd game of this 5 match T20I Series. This will be the 5th H2H meeting between the 2 teams, with Malaysia emerging victorious in the previous game after Nepal had come out on top in each of the 1st 3 H2H encounters. Malaysia, despite being ranked lower than Nepal on the WT20I rankings, made the most use of home conditions as they proved too good for Nepal bowling them out for a paltry total of 50, and then went on to chase the target down with 40 balls to spare
