Pakistan will take on hosts Maldives in the semi-final of the SAARC Twenty20 Cup after defeating Nepal in their league match by 77 runs. Pakistan made 176 for eight off their quota. An eighth-wicket partnership between Mohammad Rameez and Ali Khan rescued Pakistan after they had been tottering at 55 for seven. Khan scored 62 off 41 whereas Rameez made 48 off 22. In reply, Nepal could manage just 99 for nine. The second semi-final will be played between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.

I did not know Pakistan has two national cricket teams playing simultaneously. One playing Test against Sri Lanka and second playing SAARC Twenty20 Cup in Maldives.
