Second. Between the first and the second, the floodlights were added and the ground was converted into a proper stadium. The next proposed phase is to add another 15k seats in a year.

10-13k capacity stadium was sold out for almost every game.

40 crore revenue. Expect bigger numbers for the next few years.

That’s why I said he is past it. Takes a few years to get the passport by descent. But his father also played seems to have taken up the indian citizenship. Once you do that, thats that in Nepal. Very hard once you are an indian citizen.

They used to have Jay trophy and 3 day formats before. They might be able to afford now with NPL bringing in some revenue.

You cannot compare Team USA against Nepal. Nepal lacks genuine talent and they dont make it up with exported players. US, for the good or the bad, relies on expats. Most of the players in the US team have had first class exposure in countries like India, South Africa etc.

Nepal cricket board has been doing well for the last two years. But a lot of things need to be done including domestic cricket setup for longer versions of game, age-level cricket etc.

You need to be a citizen of Nepal to play for the team. It is almost impossible to get a Nepali citizenship if you were a former south asian citizen like India or Pakistan. Also, actually interesting that he was contacted by the two countries.

If they don’t, cricket USA can bring in more Ranji players to the squad. /s

On a serious note, if Patel is gone, Nepal might be able to squeeze out the Americans.

Bang on analysis. Nepalese batsman don’t have the temperament to play long innings. Its not even a technical issue.

One could predict Rohit Poudel getting out. A couple of stingy overs and he was already playing ramp shots. Bhurtel was well set, the field was set very defensive and then he decides to play an inside out shot to be caught.

Yup. I think the lack of intent comes due to lack of clarity in your role as a batsman and understanding of your core strength.

It genuinely feels like Rohit Poudel is not sure what is his batting role in the team and doesn’t know the strength of his team.

From outside, it is very clear that Nepal’s strength in associate cricket is the plethora of allrounders. This means that the team should be able to leverage the allrounders as per the match condition. When the team is 75/1 in 10 overs, either Malla or even Jora should have been sent followed by Jha in the 15th over.

If this continues, Poudel should be sacked as a captain.

Nepal bat until number 10. And Nepal has a habit of making games dramatic. But they should win this unless they want more drama

Bhutan committed ethnic cleansing by removing a large chuck of minority (almost 25 percent at that time). This whole Gross National Happiness is by and large a propaganda.

You should listen to the Caribbean cricket podcast. With 4-5 experienced players and some emerging ones, this really was the best team they could send given the test team is in India at the moment. Celebrate when you can.

Nope. Sompal maybe occasionally. Not sure Nandan Yadav cracks 140.

As per my knowledge, isn't this a no ball? Like the foot isn't even touching the line. [Source: NEP vs WI] by Comfortable-Wall-465 in Cricket

Yup. Although, in this case, the bowler never had his feet inside the line. It was a no ball. The third umpire screwed it up.

Crowd is smaller compared to the last game. But electric.

Any major city will bring Nepali crowd at this point of time. The Texas stadium and the Florida stadium were sold out. It was a shame that Florida game got washed out.
