🇳🇵 Nepal’s Rising Stock: Recall of 2024 World Cup Heroics
Nepal qualified for the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, and though they did not advance to the Super Eight stage, their performances captured attention:
-
Against South Africa, Nepal came agonizingly close to a historic win, losing by just one run. They posted 114/7 while chasing 115, and pushed the match to the final ball. (ESPN Cricinfo)
-
vs Bangladesh, Nepal again put up a fight, though Bangladesh defended a low total of 106, with Nepal being bowled out for 85, losing by 21 runs. The bowling from Bangladesh (notably Tanzim Hasan Sakib's 4/7 spell) was extremely effective on a pitch that was far from flat. (NDTV Sports)
-
Despite those losses, many commentators and fans praised Nepal’s batting and bowling in patches — they showed resilience and belief, especially for an associate team facing full member sides. Rohit Paudel, their captain, remarked that the team “belongs at the big stage” after the South Africa match, reflecting the confidence and improved stature Nepal has built.
These matches showed Nepal isn’t just participating — they’re competing closely, pushing stronger teams, and turning heads.
