The NCA, renowned for its world-class facilities, will sharpen Nepal’s players’ skills and strategies. They will spend two weeks honing their game before heading to Canada for the tri-series, which also involves Oman.

Currently, Nepal holds the sixth position in the League 2 table. Their goal is to climb higher and secure a spot in the CWC Qualifier.

Captain Rohit Paudel, along with Dipendra Singh Airee and Sandeep Lamichhane, recently played in the Global T20 league in Canada. Their experience will be crucial in Nepal’s campaign.

The Rhinos aim to finish in the top four of the League 2 standings by December 2026. This achievement would grant them direct entry to the CWC Qualifier. Falling short would mean battling it out in the CWC Qualifier Play-off.

Nepal’s Preliminary Squad: Rohit Paudel (c), Aasif Sheikh, Kushal Bhurtel, Sompal Kami, Lalit Rajbanshi, Surya Tamang, Dev Khanal, Aarif Sheikh, Karan KC, Gulshan Jha, Dipendra Singh Airee, Anil Sah, Bhim Sharki, Kushal Malla, Aakash Chand, Rijan Dhakal, Sundeep Jora, Arjun Saud, Kamal Singh Airee, Sagar Dhakal, Basir Ahamad, Sandeep Lamichhane
