As the batsmen were easily reading the mid pacers, captain Arun Basnet urged Bibek (medium pacer) for a spin spell at 8 th over which ought to be the turning point of the game.

Utsabh further took a back foot high catch. Despite some misfield in the early overs; later E8848 displayed some   athletic fielding.
