Dundee, June 3 (Reporter) Nepal has claimed a last gasp victory to open their Cricket World Cup League 2 tri-series in Scotland, beating the hosts with a ball to spare here. Needing a single run off the last legal delivery, a leg-side wide was ruled off the bowling of spinner Mark Watt, sparking a pitch invasion on Monday. The successful chase of 297 is the country's highest in their ODI history, and the victory moves them off the bottom of the League 2 table. Scotland looked in control early even after losing the toss, with Charlie Tear's 80 and Finlay McCreath's 55, helping the hosts to 296 off their 50 overs. The hosts had Nepal on the canvas at 192/7 in the 39th over in spite of Kushal Bhurtel's 55, though it was Karan KC, having often stepped up in seemingly helpless situations, saving his country again. Walking out at No.9, Karan struck an unbeaten 65 from 41 balls, including four sixes. An over of 18 meant his side needed seven off the final over, though Karan lost No.10 Sandeep Lamichhane on the first ball off the final over, meaning he was joined by last man Rijan Dhakal. Dhakal managed to move off strike, leaving Karan with the task of needing five off the final three balls. Karan then hit a pair of twos before Watt's second wide of the confirmed the victory. The tri-series continues on Wednesday with Nepal taking on the Netherlands at the same venue...////...
