Twenty20 Qualifier: Nepal qualified for the ICC World T20 in Bangladesh




















Ganesh Bahadur Shahi Thakuri we miss you: RIP



When Vesawkar scored 1 run from last ball of the match whole nations came out on the street and celebs all day. Historical moment for Nepal sports they never qualified in a major event of any sports.From day 1 of the qualifying round our site tipped Nepal will qualify. Nepal used to fight team’s  like Bangladesh, Netherlands and USA in 90’s. Cricket is a main sports in  South Asia Since India  won the world cup in 83 many people’s expected Nepal to go on and get the test status like Bangladesh did as both countries population loves cricket. May be this qualifications will inspired Nepal’s cricket authority put the correct infrastructure per haves pay monthly wages to all national players in order to lose over a  Secure job.  One of Nepal  finest player has moved to USA for survival after the U19 world cup in 2004. Nepal has the cricket craze, now  authority will get bigger sponsor in coming days but the main question how monies will be spend?  Back to match- After sending Hong Kong into bat, Nepal had bowled and fielded marvellously for the majority of the innings before a hiccup in the final two over’s allowed Hong Kong to reach 143 for 8. Basant Regmi best spinner out the test playing nations who bowled 4 over’s for only 14 runs, Regmi has the ability to play in  highest level of the game, has bowled well throughout the qualifying as per our expert he is the blower of the series. captain Paras Khadka led the team superbly and his performance was  outstanding. Gyanendra Malla has the best technique at this level, He was part of Nepal's campaign in the Under-19 World Cup in 2006 and scored 145 runs in six innings, including 45 in the famous two-run win against South Africa in the Plate semi-final. All in all Nepal deserved to be in the main event and Nepal players done their country proud. Early next year we will see the cricket hype in Nepal when they play team like Bangladesh , Zimbabwe and West indies. If cricket authority of Nepal put the infrastructure right in next 5 years they have players , will have players to gain the  test status because millions of young kids loves the game. Nepal also play qualifying round for 2015 world cup in New Zealand early next year hope they will continue their T20 performance in ODI’s.
