IND vs NEP Live Score: India win toss, opt to bat first

Smriti Mandhana, India Captain: We'd like to bat first today. In the last few years, T20 cricket has changed. It's a collective effort, we've looked to take on whatever is in our range. The outfields are quick, the tracks are flat, sometimes even 200 isn't enough. We'll look to trust our process and look to bat. 180 will be great, it's about playing one ball at a time. Harman and Pooja are resting.

Indu Barma, Nepal Captain: We are ready for both. We have some youngsters who are keen to get into the contest. We are ready for every challenge, we look to give our 100%. We have two changes.
