Nepal suffers loss by a solitary run against South Africa

Sport

After restricting the Proteas to 115 for seven in its twenty overs, Nepal looked to be cruising towards a famous win before a middle-order stumble left them devastatingly short.

Nepal suffered a heart-breaking one-run loss against South Africa during the T20 World Cup Group D encounter at the Arnos Vale ground in Kingstown, St. Vincent on Saturday.

A sensational spell of spin bowling by left-arm wrist spinner Tabraiz Shamsi helped South Africa pip Nepal by one run in the 31st match of the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024. The defeat turned out to be a major blow for Nepal as they are now out of the marquee tournament.

Shamsi's Player of the Match (POTM) performance was the key that helped the Proteas defend just 115 runs. He claimed the wickets of Kushal Bhurtel, Rohit Paudel, Dipendra Singh Airee and Aasif Sheikh to finish with figures of 4/19 in his four overs.
