Nepal’s Under-19 women’s cricket team has completed a 13-day closed training camp in Bhairahawa as preparations continue for upcoming international competitions, including the ICC Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup and the Asia Cup.
The second phase of training took place at Siddhartha Cricket Stadium in Bhairahawa, Rupandehi. A total of 28 players selected from all seven provinces took part in the programme, giving the coaching staff an opportunity to work with a broad group of emerging talent.
The camp was led by coach Mahesh Rijal, a former national cricketer who also works in ICC women’s Under-19 cricket coaching. The programme was intended to improve players’ skills and readiness ahead of the international calendar.
Nepal and Bangladesh will jointly host the 2027 ICC Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup from January 21 to February 6. Nepal’s group-stage fixtures are scheduled to take place in Kathmandu, where the team will face Ireland, India and the West Indies.
With major matches approaching, sustained preparation, match practice and player development will be important for Nepal’s young squad. Further team announcements and match preparations are expected as the tournament draws closer.
