Maldives are coming on the back of a 9-wicket win against Mongolia in their previous group-stage game. They are not the favourites ahead of a strong Nepalese side but would be looking to outshine their opponents.
On the other hand, Nepal scripted history in their previous game against Mongolia. They registered the highest-ever score in T20I cricket, when they scored 314 runs.
Rohit Paudel and co. then skittled out the opposition for a paltry score of 41 runs.
