KATHMANDU – In an exciting ceremony, the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) unveiled the team’s brand new jersey for the upcoming ICC Twenty20 World Cup. The much-anticipated reveal, attended by dignitaries like Youth and Sports Minister Birajbhakta Shrestha and National Sports Council Member Secretary Tanklal Ghising, sent a jolt of excitement through the Nepali cricket fraternity.

The new jersey design is more than just a fashion statement; it’s a symbol of Nepal’s cricketing identity. The powerful tribute to Nepal’s rich heritage, with the mighty silhouette of Mount Everest and the formidable rhinoceros, represents the nation’s unwavering spirit. The harmonious blend of red, light grey, and white, with a bold ‘Nepal’ emblazoned in yellow across the azure chest, further reinforces this identity.

The international stage is also respected. The CAN logo sits proudly on the left sleeve, balanced by the prestigious Twenty20 World Cup insignia on the right. A sleek crimson collar adds a panache, while the Nepali flag, a symbol of unity and pride, waves on both shoulders.

Flip the jersey over, and the dominant blue canvas proudly displays the player’s name above a gleaming golden number, ensuring each Nepali warrior is easily recognized on the battlefield.

With the T20 World Cup set to explode onto the scene in the Americas and the West Indies next June, anticipation is reaching a fever pitch. This marks Nepal’s second foray into the coveted tournament, and expectations are soaring.

Group D of the 20-nation extravaganza throws Nepal into the mix with formidable opponents like South Africa, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and the Netherlands. But Nepal is ready. The stage is set, and on June 4th, Nepal embarks on their journey, ready to ignite passions and chase cricketing glory on the world stage.
