Kakarvitta, August 26 – The Nepal national cricket 'A' team was given a grand farewell in Kakarvitta on Sunday before departing for Assam, India. The send-off ceremony was jointly organized by the Koshi Provincial Cricket Association, Jhapa District Cricket Association, and Bhadrapur Cricket Club.

The Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) earlier announced a 16-member squad for the series, featuring a blend of youth and experience. Anil Sah, who has previously represented the senior national team, will lead the side.

The full squad includes:

Cricket analysts have welcomed this series as a crucial opportunity for young and emerging players to gain international exposure. The initiative reflects CAN's long-term vision to prepare future national team players through regular competitive matches abroad.

The performance of Nepal 'A' in this series is expected to open doors for several players to make their way into the senior national squad in the near future.
