Despite the loss, the Caribbean side topped the series 3-2, but had very little to celebrate, as they failed to really put together a dominant collective display. Instead, the series win was lined with individual performances, namely from captain Roston Chase, Johnson Charles, Andre Fletcher, Alick Athanaze, as well as a stellar effort from Obed McCoy with the ball. Athanaze’s unbeaten 29-ball 42 and Chase’s 33 off 23 balls were the highlight of the West Indies A innings, which ended at 172-7, after they opted to take first strike. Sagar Dhakal (3-17) and Sompal Kami (3-16) did the damage for Nepal with the ball. In reply, Nepal, courtesy of half-centuries from Aasif Sheikh (51) and Anil Sah (58), easily got to their target with seven balls to spare. McCoy led West Indies A bowlers with 3-36.
