Nepali cricketers continue to raise questions about team selection process

On Tuesday, Karnali’s star pacer Anuj Chanara quit the team citing unfair selection process. This was only the latest in a series of controversies over transparency in both domestic teams and the national setup.

Nepali cricket has scaled new heights in the past few years. Nepal have pushed heavyweights like South Africa and England to the brink at T20 cricket’s grandest stage, the T20 World Cup. The Nepal Premier League has seen remarkable success, drawing global cricketing stars to Kirtipur ground. The popularity around the gentleman’s game has been only growing in the country.
