Bangladesh are looking to nail the final remaining place in the Super Eight stage of the T20 World Cup 2024 as they face Nepal in their last match of Group D in St Vincent. The Bangla Tigers are favourites to reach the next round of the tournament but still need to do some work.
They face competition from the Netherlands, who are breathing under their neck in the group stage. The two teams are set to have a crack at each other at Arnos Vale Ground in Kingstown. Here is all you need to know about the venue before this clash.
Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown pitch report
The Arnos Vale Ground in Kingstown hosted an International game after almost a decade when South Africa and Nepal faced each other a couple of days back. The game saw spinners rolling to roost with leg-spinner Kushal Bhurtel and left-arm wrist-spinner Tabraiz Shamsi taking four wickets each. The Proteas edged past Nepal by one run in that low-scoring contest.
