They should aim to set a challenging target for Nepal and put pressure on their batting lineup. It is important for the Pakistani batsmen to be patient and not take unnecessary risks that could lead to wickets.

On the other hand, Nepal needs to maintain their disciplined bowling and keep taking wickets at regular intervals. They have already shown great determination and skill in their bowling performance, and they need to continue with the same intensity. Their fielding should also be sharp to prevent any unnecessary runs and put pressure on the Pakistani batsmen.

Overall, the match promises to be an exciting contest between two competitive teams. It will be interesting to see how the second innings unfolds and which team comes out on top.
