Nepal eye rebound win over Italy, SL look to dominate Oman

Mumbai/Pallekele, Feb 11 (UNI) The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 continues with two compelling Group-stage clashes on Thursday. The spotlight, however, is on Nepal, who came agonisingly close to producing one of the tournament’s biggest shocks, narrowly losing to 2010 champions England by just four runs.
Riding this momentum, the Rhinos will face Italy at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai at 3 p.m. IST, while Sri Lanka take on Oman at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in the 16th match of the tournament.
Nepal showed immense courage in their opening match against England, chasing 185 and falling short despite an inspired performance. Top-order batsmen Kushal Bhurtel and Rohit Paudel gave Nepal a strong start, scoring 29 off 17 balls and 39 off 34 balls respectively.
