West Indies Surge into Super Eight with Victory Over Nepal

West Indies stormed into the Super Eight Stage of the Twenty20 World Cup with a dominating nine-wicket victory over Nepal in Mumbai on Sunday. The match saw standout performances from Jason Holder, who took four wickets, and Shai Hope, who scored a half-century, setting the foundation for the win.

Chasing a target of 134, the Caribbean team made quick work of the Nepalese side at Wankhede Stadium, thanks to Holder's earlier efforts. Captain Shai Hope and Shimron Hetmyer remained unbeaten with scores of 61 and 46, respectively, effectively eliminating Nepal from the tournament.

The match marks a setback for Nepal, who struggled after a promising start to the tournament despite an earlier 2-1 series win over a weakened West Indies team in Sharjah. Despite Dipendra Singh Airee's resilient 58 runs, Nepal finished at 133-8 in their 20 overs, with Holder's decisive 4-27 playing a crucial role in their defeat.
