KATHMANDU, JANUARY 29
After a hiatus of over two years, women's cricket is set to make a comeback with a T20I series featuring Nepal, the Netherlands, and Thailand, commencing tomorrow.
Marking the occasion, the tournament trophy was officially unveiled today at an event in Kathmandu.
The series will follow a home-and-away format, with each team facing the others twice. Both visiting teams, making their debut appearance in Nepal, have expressed strong determination to claim the title.
Indu Verma will captain Nepal's 15-member squad, which includes two U-19 World Cup players-Puja Mahato and wicketkeeper-batter Alisha Yadav.
Skipper Verma said, 'We are well-prepared and confident enough to win the trophy.' She also urged fans to attend and support Nepali cricket.
In an effort to promote women's cricket, the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) has announced free entry for all matches.
