Mark Watt is brought into the attack. Bhurtel cuts to backward point -- no run -- but gets a single to mid-on next ball. Easy single for Aasif. One brushes Bhurtel's pads and they scamper another. Aasif finds the gap for one more. Bhurtel picks up two -- brilliant effort from Brandon McMullen at long-off, sprinting to his left and diving to save runs.
6 runs off the over. After 3 overs, Nepal are 18/0.
Brad Wheal into the attack. Aasif nudges a single. Bhurtel swings and misses -- again! There's a big sound and Scotland review for caught behind. UltraEdge shows nothing -- just the ball clipping the top of leg bail. Review lost! Bhurtel shuffles for a lap, beaten for pace, but gets a single next ball. Aasif finishes the over with a huge six. 8 runs off it. After 4 overs, Nepal are 26/0.
Mark Watt continues. Bhurtel welcomes him with a boundary and then hammers back-to-back sixes! Nepal fans are on their feet now. He taps one back to the bowler before taking a single. Aasif ends the over with another massive six, just like the previous over.
23 runs off the over! After 5 overs, Nepal are 49/0. Nepal now need 122 runs from 90 balls.
