IND Vs NEP Dream11 Team Prediction, Match Preview, Fantasy Cricket Hints: Captain, Probable Playing 11s, Team News; Injury Updates For Today’s India Vs Nepal Asia Cup 2023 Match No 5 in Kandy, 3PM IST, September 4

In a must-win Asia Cup 2023 match, Rohit Sharma's Team India will face Nepal on Monday at the Pallekele International Stadium in Kandy. Either of the two teams will need to win in order to advance to the Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 stage.

Even if India and Nepal's match No. 5 is a wash on Monday, India and the hosts Pakistan will still advance to the Super 4 stage. This will be the first-ever international cricket match between India and Nepal in any format.

Pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who has returned home ahead of Monday's match to give birth to his first child with wife Sanjana Ganesan, would be missed by India. If India advance, Bumrah is anticipated to return to the Indian team prior to the Super 4 stage.
