Legendary batsman Rahul Dravid’s U-19 team suffered a stunning loss to Nepal in the ongoing U-19 Asia Cup which is being held at Kuala Lumpur. This is the first time in history that Nepal have defeated India in cricket at any level or format.<\/p>\n
India and Nepal have encountered each other five times before, two in the U-19 World Cup and three in the U-19 Asia Cup where the men in blue have prevailed victorious each time.<\/p>\n
India won the toss and opted to field, putting Nepal to bat where they placed a fighting total of 185\/5 in 50 overs. India were all-out for 166 in 48.1 overs. It was Nepal’s captain who was the all-round star as he collected four-wickets and smashed 88 runs in 101 balls.<\/p>\n
Nepal’s Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba and many other politicians have congratulated the young colts on a stunning victory against India.<\/p>\n
India are placed in Group A of the Asia cup where they have beaten Malaysia by 202 runs on November 10. A defeat to Nepal places the Men in Blue in a tough spot as they take on a high-rated Bangladesh side on November 14. India still lead their respective group with two points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
