so its started at last. apparently our boys won their first 'official'practice match.
good for them
altho i must say, what is 20-yearold Kanishka Chaugain doing in the u-19 team?

regardless, im hoping we qualify for the super league this time around. maybe even further.

ok, apparently, apart from the skipper we got 2 more overaged players in the team:
YashwantSubedi
PremChaudhary

And while this dude is not yet 20, dont you have to be UNDER 19 to play in a u-19 tourney?
BasantaRegmi

i'm all for nepal doing well in these competitions. but not by breaking the rules.

whatever, Nepal defeated Namibia in practice match, thats great and I hope they will sideline ENGLAND in their openings.

-------------------------------

By the way, le chef dude, if ur that much concerned about the age of U-19 players why dont u check DOB of players of the ohter countires?????????????????

i did
noone else has anyone 20 years or over
JUST NEPAL

RU sure?????????????? Im not!!!!!!!!

एक्दमै sure
मैले पुरै playing conditions चेक गरेको, के रैछ भने २० बर्ष पुरा नभएसम्म eligible हुन्छ । त्यसैले १९ बर्ष xyz दिन भएमा ठिकैछ, २० बर्ष complete भको हुन नपाइने रहेछ । तेस्को मतलब चौगाइ, सुबेदी र चौधरी चाही ineligibe रहेचन । रेग्मी भने खेल्न पाउने रहेछन । मैले अरु देश हरुको lineup पनि हेरेको, खाली नेपालको team मा मात्रै overage प्लएर्स देखे ।

I do not know what to say. I fully support Nepali Team and wish them good luck however until when we are going to cut corners to get ahead. I am totally against this kind of mentality and perception. If the information above gathered by our Bro is true, even if Nepal Team does really well I will not be fully happy.

That's just me..no offence to anyone.

looks like nepal's opening encounter with england is not gonna be an easy one.
the brits beat india, one of the pre-tournament favourites in their first practice  match. Interestingly, one of the umpires in the match was nepal's own Budhi Bahadur  Pradhan.

Also, ireland, who are in the same group as nepal, lost their practive matchagainst uganda.

our boys won the second practice match too
beat scotland by 6 wickets
scotland scored 189
chased down in 46.4 overs
will post details as they become available

ok
so we beat Scotlandpretty handily. but there are some warning signs. the highest scorer for the Scots was Mr.Extras, with 35. of those, 31 came from wides. im just hoping that figure comes into control come the real matches.

of our group opponents, Zimbabwe lost narrowly to Bangladesh,while England beat South Africa.

As usual, our bowling looks to be decent, but havent yet seen the batsmen capable of 250+ scores, and therein lies my fear. Anyways, the first match that means anything is on the 6th

wishing the nepali team the best of luck

oops. nep-scot scorecard link out of kilter.
my bad

This should work

so its all started
nepal is in the same group as england, zimbabwe and ireland. in yesterday's match, 2000
2002
2004
hopefully the boys can rectify the situation a little bit tomorrow

html tags suck

For the players that are aged 20..i think it depends on what age they wer wen they played for the qualifying games. Cos it would be pretty unfair if they play for the qualifying games and then arent allowed to play in the tourn. Im pretty sure thats the reason..and im sure the organisers are not stupid enough, not notice over aged players.

All the best to the team, bring on something for the nation to cheer about!

England VS Nepal tonight,
Lets get it udated guys ..........................
lets all pray for nepal, who knows our prayer could be of some help to our fellows
