Scotland continued their strong start, reaching 81/1 at the end of 9 overs in their innings. George Munsey and Brandon McMullen rotated the strike effectively and kept the scoreboard ticking despite the introduction of spinners into the attack. Munsey, anchoring the innings on 40 off 25 balls, looked composed, while McMullen accelerated with some crisp boundaries in the powerplay. The highlight came in the 6th over when McMullen took Rupesh Singh apart, smashing three consecutive fours after a wide, pushing Scotland past the 60-run mark. Both Sandeep Lamichhane and Dipendra Singh Airee bowled tidy spells in the middle overs, slowing the run rate slightly, but Scotland maintained a healthy run flow, setting a solid platform for the second half of their innings.
Rijan Dhakal continued into his third over, but was met with fierce resistance from George Munsey, who launched him for a six and followed it up with a boundary, piling on the pressure. Mark Watt kept the momentum going with a couple of runs and a single before Munsey capped off the over with another run, taking the total higher at a brisk rate. However, the joy was short-lived as Rupesh Singh struck immediately after coming into the attack. In his very first over, he cleaned up Mark Watt for 9 off 9 balls with a delivery that breached the defence and crashed into the stumps. Brandon McMullen walked in next as Scotland looked to maintain their early scoring burst despite the setback.
Scotland’s innings got off to a brisk start with George Munsey and Mark Watt opening against Nepal’s bowlers Rijan Dhakal and Dipendra Singh Airee. Munsey began positively, picking up a single off the first ball before Watt found the boundary with a crisp drive in Dhakal’s second delivery. The pair rotated strike effectively, with Munsey then striking back-to-back boundaries off Dipendra Singh in the second over, showcasing his aggressive intent. Despite a couple of dot balls and a leg bye, the opening pair managed to keep the scoreboard ticking, collecting 15 runs from the first two overs and laying a steady platform for Scotland.
