Nepal’s U-19 women’s cricket team have won the Belt and Road Series in China, finishing the tournament unbeaten after their final match against Hong Kong was abandoned due to rain on Sunday.

Nepal won four of their six matches in the four-team tournament, while the other two were abandoned due to rain.

Nepal made a winning start by defeating Thailand by seven wickets in their opening match. Their second match against hosts China was affected by rain and ended without a result. Nepal then registered a comprehensive 92-run victory over Hong Kong before beating Thailand by 52 runs in their fourth match.

Nepal strengthened their bid for the title with an 84-run victory over hosts China in their fifth match before taking on Hong Kong in the final fixture.

Batting first, Nepal had scored 88 runs for the loss of two wickets in 11 overs when rain interrupted play. The match could not resume due to adverse weather conditions, allowing Nepal to finish the series unbeaten and secure the title.

Nepal, China, Hong Kong and Thailand took part in the tournament.
