King City, Canada: The Nepali cricket team is set to face Oman in a crucial ICC World Cup League 2 match today, September 18th, at 9:00 PM Nepali time. The game will take place on King City grounds.
Nepal has been struggling in the tournament, having lost their previous match against host Canada by a significant margin. The team’s performance has been far from satisfactory, especially considering their recent defeats in a triangular series at home against Namibia and the Netherlands.
A victory against Oman is imperative for Nepal to climb the League 2 standings and maintain its position as a top associate nation. The team’s current position is seventh with 2 points, while Oman is just one place above them with 3 points.
Following the ODI series, Nepal will play another match against Canada on September 22nd and Oman on September 24th. The team will also participate in a T20 series with Canada and Oman. After that, Nepal is scheduled to play two practice matches against Canada or their A team.
The Nepali team, led by Rohit Paudel, has announced a 16-member squad for the matches in Canada and America. Jagat Tamta has been appointed as a consultant coach to assist the team during this crucial period.
