Hello and welcome to yet another match in the World Cup Qualifiers where West Indies will take on Nepal. The Windies are one of the favorites to go through the rounds and they started well to win their first game. They are one of the most dangerous sides who have a long batting tail and have enough resources with the ball. West Indies will face Nepal who opened their account after their victory against USA. They are looking like a strong team as well but need to come up with something extraordinary to bear this Windies team. Who do you think will win? Toss coming up...

...MATCH DAY...
