NEP vs ZIM A Team Bet:

Mentioned below is the top team bet from the NEP vs ZIM A head-to-head contest.

Nepal to win

Nepal have the home advantage and are expected to flourish under their captain Sandeep Lamichhane who has rubbed shoulders with many stalwarts of the game while playing across different T20 leagues across the globe. The off-spinner is sure to make life difficult for very inexperienced Zimbabwe A batters. Opener Innocent Kaia has played a single T20I and is yet to make his ODI debut, while his partner Tadiwanashe Marumani has scored 21 runs in 3 ODI matches. In fact, Zimbabwe captain also doesn't have an experience of playing in 50-over matches at the highest level. He has 5 T20I matches to his name. For Zimbabwe Brandon Anesu Mavuta (7 ODIs), Luke Mafuwa Jongwe (28 ODIs), Confidence Tinotenda Mutombodzi (14 ODIs), Roy Kaia (1 ODI). Notably, Zimbabwe A have won four out of their last five matches but the last game they played was against Kenya in February 2018.

On the other hand, Nepal has a lot more confidence when compared to their Zimbabwean counterparts. Leg-spinner Lamichhane has taken 50 wickets in 22 matches. There are others like Binod Bhandari (15 ODIs), Sushan Bhari (9 ODIs), Sompal Kami (18 ODIs), Aarif Sheikh (18 ODIs), Kushal Bhurtel (16 ODIs), Rohit Kumar Paudel (17 ODIs) who know the trades of the format fairly well. Zimbabwe will face the challenge of spending some time in the middle before getting into the groove and it would not be unfair to declare that this task for them will be daunting. Hosts Nepal have a massive edge over Zimbabwe A in the contest and if you predict the same, scoot over to Pari Match and place your bet to earn handsome returns.
