NCT won by 2 wickets NCT - 70/8 (9.2 overs) Yasir Mehmood - 28(20) | Bikash Shreshta - 11(5) Bhuwan Khatri - 3/8 | Mohammad Hussain - 2/14
A nail-biting finish to the contest as NCT eventually seal the match in the final over. Chasing a trivial target of 70, NCT had a horror start losing the big wicket of Roman Mazumder cheaply.
The decision to tinker with the batting lineup did not yield results as EVE capitalized on it and almost pulled off a heist.
Mohammad Hussain's double strike in the first over Bhuwan Khatri's encore in the middle overs inched EVE closer to an iconic win. However, it was a the late flourish from Bikash Shreshta, that saved NCT's blushes and got them over the finishing line comfortably in the end.
With the victory, NCT maintained their unbeaten streak in the tournament so far and picked up their third consecutive win on the trot. They climb to the top of the points table with six points while EVE remain at the 4th place with two points.

9.2 Bimal Ranabhat to Bikash Shreshtha, SIX! The Tigers are home! Everest have let this one slip. Ranabhat drops it short here and outside off. Bikash once again shuffles across and clubs it over the man at deep midwicket for a maximum! What game we have had here!
9.2 Bimal Ranabhat to Bikash Shreshtha, wide, sprays it down the leg. Has to reload. 6 needed off 5.
9.1 Bimal Ranabhat to Bikash Shreshtha, on length and outside off, Bikash swings and misses. The stumps are knocked down but it's a free hit so Bikash survives.
9.1 Bimal Ranabhat to Bikash Shreshtha, NO BALL AND A FOUR! It was overpitched on the off, Bikash gets in line of the ball and whacks it over midwicket for a boundary! The game is slipped away from Everest! Free hit coming up...

8.6 Sahil Akhtar to Riadul Islam, FOUR! 12 needed off the final over. Fraction short and outside off, Islam charges down the wicket, takes it on the rise and swipes across. He mistimes it and the long on fielder comes underneath it but the ball spills off his palms and goes to the fence on the bounce.
8.5 Sahil Akhtar to Riadul Islam, full and wide, Islam swipes across and fails to get any bat on it.

EVE has almost done the job and needs to stick to the plan. They need to be on their toes and can't allow any errors. NCT need 20 more from 12 balls.

Bikash Shreshta, LHB, comes out next to bat at No.10
7.5 Bimal Ranabhat to Yasir Mehmood, OUT! Is that the game for Everest? Bimal floats it on the off, Yasir skips down the track and looks to go over the top but terribly miscues it. The fielder at long off watches the ball carefully and completes the crucial catch.
