The match holds great value for the Nepal cricket team as they have lost their opening fixture against the Netherlands by six wickets and the second group league match against Sri Lanka was abandoned due to rain.

One more washout would finish their World Cup campaign but the weather forecast looks pleasant for Arnos Vale Ground on Saturday. The Rohit Paudel-led side still have a chance to qualify for the next stage.

Opponent South Africa have already qualified for Super Eight and Nepal need to win their remaining two matches by a big margin. The ace spinner Sandeep Lamichhane, who missed the USA leg due to US visa issues, will be available for the selection on Saturday.
