The Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) is all set to host the Nepal A side with Ireland Wolves in a three-match T20 series, starting on March 28, Thursday. Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur will host all three matches.
Ireland A are coming into this series on the back of a 0-2 T20 series defeat over the Nepal national team.
The 15-man squad selected in the Nepal A side will stand a chance to perform well and get into the T20 World Cup, starting in June 2024. After the conclusion of this series, Nepal A will lock horns with the Irish Wolves side in three One-Dayers.
Keeper-batter Stephen Doheny ended the recent T20 series against Nepal as the leading run-scorer with 72 runs from two innings. Ben White scalped three wickets to emerge as his team’s leading wicket-taker.
Keeper-batter Binod Bhandari will lead the Nepal A side while Neil Rock will continue to captain the Ireland A team. Rock has represented Ireland in three ODIs and 19 T20Is.
Gareth Delany, who has played 21 T20Is and 64 ODIs for Ireland, is also a major attraction in the Ireland A squad. On the other hand, Bhandari has played 40 T20Is for the national side.
