D’Arcy Short becomes the first and only Lion to score a fifty in Nepal Premier League 2025.
In the 6th match of the team against the Biratnagar Kings, D’Arcy Short came as the opener and stood still on the field despite early wickets on the non-strikers end.
The team needed to chase 145 in 20 overs and D’Arcy made 57 off 44 balls, with the strike rate of 129.55, which included 6 fours and 2 sixes. Not just the individual score but D’Arcy’s partnership with Sundeep Jora of 37 off 28 balls and with Niroshan Dickwella of 46 off 24 balls was a game changer and the pressure shifting moment.
D’Arcy’s
wicket was taken by Sandeep Lamichhane in the 14th over when the team needed
just 33 runs and the victory run for the team came in the 18th over from the
wide ball by Basir Ahamad.
