Airee’s Heroics Seal Nepal’s First-Ever T20 World Cup Win in Last-Over Thriller Against Scotland

By IANS News February 18, 2026 • 09:11 AM View: 210

Dipendra Singh Airee struck a brilliant unbeaten half-century as Nepal fought back twice -- with ball and bat -- to overpower Scotland by seven wickets in a last-over thriller in Match 33 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday.

This is Nepal's first win at the T20 World Cup in 12 attempts, and left Scotland, the last-minute replacements for Bangladesh, ruing the missed opportunity. They had lost all their matches in the 2024 edition.
