Brace yourselves for a thrilling clash as Nepal, Papua New Guinea, and Hong Kong gear up to vie for supremacy in a series filled with pulsating cricket action. The tournament will unfold in a captivating single round-robin format, with the top two contenders battling it out in a tantalizing final showdown. Meanwhile, the third-placed team will engage in a riveting encounter against Hong Kong A, promising an additional spectacle for cricket enthusiasts.

Mark your calendars as Nepal braces for gripping encounters against Hong Kong and Papua New Guinea on March 10 and 12, respectively. The crescendo of the series will culminate in an electrifying finale on March 13, promising a spectacle not to be missed.

Before the battleground ignites, Nepal is poised to ignite the spirit of camaraderie in the Friendship Cup clash against Hong Kong on March 9, setting the stage for an enthralling series ahead.

The stage is set, and the warriors have been summoned. Rohit Paudel, the indomitable leader, will steer the Nepalese contingent comprising a formidable 14-man squad, albeit missing some of the nation's seasoned campaigners.

The absence of stalwarts such as Aasif Sheikh, Anil Sah, and Sompal Kami presents an opportunity for emerging talents to showcase their mettle on the international stage. However, the return of Aakash Chand, Lokesh Bam, and Binod Bhandari injects renewed vigor into the squad. Meanwhile, the likes of Sagar Dhakal, Rashid Khan, Pratish GC, and Aarif Sheikh stand firm, ready to uphold Nepal's cricketing legacy.
