Nepal, who occupy the fifth place in Group A in the ongoing ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier 2015, play a crucial match against Papua New Guinea (PNG), in Dublin. Their batting faced problems in the recent tour of Netherlands, a tournament that was lost 3-1, just days before the qualifiers began. The shakiness in their batting has continued; they have been bowled out for less than 110 in two of their three completed matches, their folding for 54 against Ireland being a highlight. Their only win has arrived against USA, against whom they chased down 122. LIVE CRICKET SCORECARD: Nepal vs Papua New Guinea, ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier 2015
PNG’s campaign, on the other hand, has been more successful. They are the only team to be unbeaten in the event so far, with two wins out of three games, and a game having been washed out. They hold the second spot in the table, behind hosts and favourites Ireland, against whom they registered a two-wicket victory a couple of days ago.

Viewing cricket via live streaming is becoming popular due to its convenience. Although internet speeds are still low in some pockets of the cricket world, live coverage of lower qualities becoming available online has enabled fans to log in to enjoy games on the go. Also, it does away with the need to possess a television set, as a mobile phone, a tablet or a laptop is enough.
