Nepal vs Italy T20 World Cup Highlights: Mosca brothers annihilate NEP, seal one-sided 10-wicket win for debutants ITA

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Wow, disappointing from Nepal, who have completely panicked. No communication as both batters end up running to the wrong end – the same end. The throw is calmly flipped over to the vacant wicketkeeper's end, where Meade can flip the bails off.

Italy won't be chasing much here. This is a real trainwreck suddenly. 102/8.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: This is an implosion and Italy are well on top! Gulshan tries to go big, but again it's not a clean hit, and straight to the long-on fielder – Nepal handing out catching practice at the minute, and it's suddenly 102/7!

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Wow, this is some implosion for Nepal. Can't give too much credit to Smuts there – he drops it short and it's there to be hit, and it should go into a gap. But the set Aarif Shaikh can't pick it – he only finds the fielder at deep square, and it's a good sharp catch!

101/6 now, and into the lower order.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Italy in the driver's seat! Manenti who strikes for his second, Bam tries to go for the early big hoick, but can't get enough distance on it – the fielder is able to settle underneath it, and take it safely while ensuring he doesn't trod on the boundary!

Manenti ends with 2/9, and Italy are well on top here with just 5 overs to play in this innings.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Great ball by Kalugamage! Not a lot of spin, but it's a good length and that googly just skids through to beat Airee on the inside edge.

That could prove to be a big wicket. 93/4 now, not allowing this partnership to grow too much – but breaking it was important.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Happy to play conatained when needed to and get to the back half, where they can begin taking more risks.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Aarif Shaikh gets a move on and the crowd are beginning to enjoy it! Two fours swung hard and well into the leg side.

79/3 after 11 overs now.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: That's phenomenal bowling, and Gian Meade takes advantage with the gloves! Ben Manenti back on and draws Aasif forward, who misses it altogether and overstretches at the crease. Meade waits until he is outside the crease to whip the bails off, and he is absolutely certain he has his man – and so he does!

49/3 out of nowhere! Italy are on top at the moment.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Kalugamage comes on with his leg spin, and it makes an impact! Paudel tries to hit him hard through mid-wicket, but doesn't get enough of it – a wide long-on can easily settle underneath it to send him back.

49/2 now.

Italy vs Nepal T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Paudel goes big again! Gets a shorter one from Grant Stewart and hits it so well – flies deep into the leg-side and fetches him six more.

He's on 22*(10), and Nepal are 46/1.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: A couple of fours in Hasan's second over as he drifted down leg and allowed it to trickle away.

The following over, JJ Smuts bowls to Paudel, who gets down on one knee and swings hard. Gets all of it and sends it over the midwicket boundary against the left-arm spinner.

33/1 now, after 5 overs.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: They don't take nearly as long to get that opening wicket they were gunning for! Ali Hasan strikes in his first over as Bhurtel tries to drive him – picks out the fielder at cover, and it's a phenomenal start for Italy as they peg Nepal back early!

8/1 after 2 overs.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Spin very early on as Ben Manenti took the first over, and he strings together 5 dot balls. Just 1 off it – excellent tight start.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Here we go then! Bright sunshine in Mumbai, and the Nepal openers rush out for the challenge. Italy allowed a 126-run opening stand vs Scotland – not something they can afford today. Here we go!

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Here is Nepal's playing XI for today's game –

Kushal Bhurtel, Aasif Sheikh (wk), Rohit Paudel (c), Dipendra Singh Airee, Aarif Sheikh, Lokesh Bam, Gulsan Jha, Karan KC, Nandan Yadav, Sandeep Lamichhane, Lalit Rajbanshi

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Two changes for Italy. The enforced Madsen change, Marcus Compopiano in. Thomas Draca sits for Jaspreet Singh.

Justin Mosca, Anthony Mosca, JJ Smuts, Marcus Campopiano, Harry Manenti (c), Ben Manenti, Grant Stewart, Gian Meade (wk), Crishan Kalugamage, Jaspreet Singh, Ali Hasan

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Harry Manenti wins toss and Italy will be chasing in Mumbai today. Couple of changes for the team, including the injured Madsen.

Nepal skipper Rohit Paudel says he would have bowled first as well.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: 30 minutes away from the toss now. The Wankhede has hosted plenty of games already this tournament, and teams batting first have had strong success thus far, including last night. The pitch is proving to have more turn and slowness in it than typically expected – the average score remains high, but chasing doesn't seem to be the automatic path to victory it often could be in dewy conditions. The toss-winning captain might like to bat first today.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Between names like Dependra Airee and Lokesh Bam in the middle order, Nepal have shown plenty of big-hitting threat lower down the order – the most premier batting spots in a T20 lineup many would argue. While they couldn't get the team over the line, the fight they gave England is an illustration of what the team's strength will be in this group stage campaign.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: Wayne Madsen suffered a shoulder dislocation very early in Italy's tournament opener, and has been ruled out of this forthcoming match as well. A moment of great misfortune for the tournament debutants to lose a player of such experience and importance to the team.

In his stead, Harry Manenti – the younger of the two Manenti brothers in the team – will lead the Italians.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: In Group C, West Indies' win over England leaves them at the top with two wins from two games and on four points. Behind them are England (win vs NEP, loss vs WI) and Scotland (win vs ITA, loss vs WI).

Today's two teams have each lost one game – which means a loss here could spell the end of the campaign, all but mathematically. A win, however, would keep either one of these two teams alive in a competitive group.

ITA vs NEP T20 World Cup LIVE Score: An all-associate clash awaits at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Nepal looking for the same extreme support and energy they received in their tournament opener, while Italy hoping they can dig deep and find some inspiration themselves. A very interesting clash right around the corner.
