After a loss in their first match of the tournament against USA Women by 44 runs, Nepal Women bounced back with two wins in a row, with their latest win coming against Rwanda Women in a low-scoring thriller.
Choosing to bowl first, Nepal produced a disciplined performance to bowl Rwanda out for just 88 runs. Rachana Chaudhary was the star with the ball, picking up 3 wickets for 12 runs, while Puja Mahato and Kabita Kunwar supported well with two wickets each to keep the pressure on.
In reply, Nepal’s chase was anchored by Samjhana Khadka, who played a brilliant knock of 48 runs off 42 balls. Despite her efforts, the team suffered a mid-order collapse, losing wickets in quick succession as they neared the target. Geovanis Uwase’s three wickets made the finish tense, but Nepal eventually crossed the line with 2 wickets and 2 balls to spare, securing a hard-fought victory.

Vanuatu Women's poor run of form in the tournament continues as they lose yet another match, falling to a clinical USA Women side by 53 runs.
Chasing a challenging target of 154, Vanuatu struggled from the very beginning. They lost opener Rachel Andrew for a duck in the first over, setting a negative tone for the innings.
While Valenta Langiatu played a brisk knock of 24 and Selina Solman fought hard for her 40 runs, the rest of the batting order collapsed under pressure. Aditiba Chudasama was the chief destroyer for the USA, taking 4 wickets for just 15 runs.
Earlier in the day, Vanuatu’s bowlers found it difficult to contain Chetna Pagydyala, who remained unbeaten on 81. Despite Vanessa Vira’s tidy spell of 2 for 15, Vanuatu couldn't prevent USA from posting 153, eventually being bowled out for 100.
