NepalWest Indies
173/683 (17.1)

Nepal pulled off a stunner in Sharjah, crushing West Indies by 90 runs in what turned out to be a landmark win for the underdogs. Batting first, Aasif Sheikh (68*) and Sundeep Jora (63) built a powerhouse 100-run stand, helping Nepal post a solid 173 for 6. Things really took off in the back half of the innings, with the pair smashing boundaries and clearing ropes, while Aadil Alam added a spicy 11* cameo to cap it off. West Indies’ bowlers, especially Akeal Hosein (2 for 21), had some early success, but it didn’t last long.

Then came the real drama. West Indies crumbled under pressure, getting bowled out for just 86, their sixth-lowest T20I total ever. Alam wasn’t done yet; he came back with the ball and snatched 4 wickets, while Kushal Bhurtel chipped in with 3. Nepal’s fielding was electric, with flying catches and relentless energy sealing the deal. This wasn’t just a win; it was history. Nepal now leads the series 2-0, and with one game left, they’ve already pulled off their biggest series triumph to date. Talk about punching above your weight!

WI vs NEP 2025 2nd T20I – Meaning for West Indies

Since their World T20 glory in 2016, West Indies have gradually lost their edge in both ODI and T20I cricket. For almost a decade the team has been in a rebuilding phase, experimenting with new tactics and fresh faces. To truly shape these changes, they need tough match practice, and Nepal come in as an ideal opponent at this stage of their journey.

WI vs NEP – Situation of the West Indies Squad

After 2016, West Indies players have often been at odds with the cricket board over salaries, scheduling clashes and uneven resource sharing. Efforts to improve have been going on for nine years but the progress is slow, leading to many stars leaving early or stepping away from international duty. Chris Gayle, Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard and Nicholas Pooran are among those who moved on, and their absence created a serious gap in experience. Without enough senior players to steady the side or pass on the know-how from their two world titles, the team’s performances remain inconsistent and even unique skills like Narine’s mystery spin have not been fully passed down.

WI vs NEP – New Faces to Watch

With the experience gap now a reality, West Indies are focusing on fresh tactics and giving young players more chances. They no longer rely on one or two match winners and are widening their training to reduce the old boom-or-bust pattern. Jewel Andrew and Jediah Blades are two exciting names to follow in this series. Andrew brings explosive power and an impressive ability to handle spin, while Blades offers the rare left-arm spin option that the team badly needs, combining multiple release angles with sharp control.

WI vs NEP – Conclusion

This match matters less for the result and more for giving the newcomers valuable time in the middle and for testing different game plans. The West Indies may look unsettled and could even lose to Nepal, but these are the growing pains every true rebuild must go through, and Nepal provide just the right level of challenge for the process.

WI vs NEP 2025 2nd T20I – Venue History&Analysis: Sharjah Cricket Stadium

Stadium Capacity: Around 39,000 spectators

Stadium Address: Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Second Industrial Street, Industrial Area 5, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates

About the Stadium:

Sharjah Cricket Stadium is one of the most iconic neutral venues in world cricket, admired for both its rich history and unique atmosphere. Built through the vision of businessman and cricket devotee Abdul Rahman Bukhatir, the ground was completed in 1982 and officially opened in April 1984 with the inaugural Asia Cup, which was also the first international tournament organised by the Asian Cricket Council. From its very first day Sharjah stood apart, beginning its journey with a maiden international fixture, the opening edition of a continental championship, and the ACC’s very first international event, achievements that instantly earned the venue global recognition and turned a desert project into a celebrated cricketing landmark.

In the decades that followed, the stadium became the heartbeat of the Cricketers Benefit Fund Series, a pioneering competition that combined entertainment with financial support for retired international players. Between 1984 and 2003 Sharjah staged more than two hundred ODIs, overtaking every other ground in the world for one-day matches and setting a record that still stands. Known for its slow pitch and short boundaries that reward clever spinners, it produced many unforgettable moments, none more famous than Javed Miandad’s last-ball six against India in the 1986 Austral Asia Cup final, an iconic stroke that sealed Pakistan’s victory and confirmed Sharjah’s status as one of the great theatres of the modern game.
