Women’s Asia Cup 2024 1st Match Prediction
Despite UAE’s higher ICC ranking (16th vs Nepal’s 21st), Nepal’s recent form gives them an edge in this match. Nepal has won 4 out of their last 5 T20Is, while UAE has struggled, losing 3 out of 5.
Nepal’s batting strength, particularly Rubina Chhetri’s recent performance, could be crucial. However, UAE’s Esha Oza is capable of changing the game with her aggressive batting.
In bowling, both teams have key players to watch – Puja Mahato for Nepal and Vaishnave Mahesh for UAE.
While UAE has more experience at this level, Nepal’s recent form and momentum make them slight favorites. However, it’s likely to be a closely contested match.
