As Nepali cricket gains momentum, infrastructure lags behind

After battling it out against two of the best ODI cricket teams in the world, India and Pakistan, the Nepali cricket team returned home on September 6 after taking part in the Asia Cup . As expected, the team was warmly welcomed by eager fans and media upon their arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport.

The excitement surrounding Nepal’s matches against Pakistan and India was evident. Crowds gathered to watch the game, and political leaders shared photos of themselves enjoying the match. What was particularly heartening was witnessing individuals and organisations announcing cash prizes for every four, six, and wicket.
