Summary
  • Nepal face West Indies in first T20I match on September 27

  • West Indies have named weakened side for upcoming tour

  • Marks Nepal's first-ever bilateral series against ICC Full Member team

Nepal will face the West Indies in a historic T20I series, with the first match taking place at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in the UAE on Saturday, September 27. This fixture marks Nepal's first-ever bilateral series against an ICC Full Member team.

The Windies arrive with a refreshed squad under stand-in captain Akeal Hosein, deputising for Shai Hope. Five uncapped players, including Ackeem Auguste and Amir Jangoo, feature in the team. Established players like Jason Holder, Kyle Mayers, and Fabian Allen offer valuable experience and depth.

The Caribbean team experienced a poor run recently, securing just two wins from 12 T20Is this year. However, despite fielding a slightly weakened side, they remain favourites for the series against Nepal.

Meanwhile, Nepal have made key recalls to address this challenge, with Mohammad Aadil Alam and Sundeep Jora returning to the national squad. Rohit Paudel captains the team, with Dipendra Singh Airee serving as his deputy. Sandeep Lamichhane and Lalit Rajbanshi spearhead the spin attack and will carry a significant burden on the Sharjah pitch, which often slows down.

Nepal enter the three-match T20I series having won four of their eight matches this year. Kushal Bhurtel was a significant run-scorer during this period, but the batting line-up must fire for them to get a positive result.
