WI vs NEP Match Preview, Squad, and Pitch Conditions
It’s the first-ever meeting between these two teams. Nepal’s Cricket Association is hosting the series in the UAE to prepare for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier later this year. For the West Indies, this series is a chance to showcase their talent and promote cricket globally.
West Indies Squad
Led by Brandon King, the West Indies arrive with power and experience. Their batting lineup is packed with hitters like Evin Lewis, Keacy Carty, and Sherfane Rutherford. All-rounders Johann Layne and Justin Greaves add balance, while pacers are expected to suit Sharjah’s batting-friendly conditions. They come in after a strong home summer and will look to dominate with big hitting and clever bowling at the death.
Key players: Brandon King (c), Evin Lewis, Keacy Carty, Sherfane Rutherford, Johann Layne, Justin Greaves, plus others rounding out a 15-man squad.
Nepal Squad
Nepal, captained by Rohit Paudel, brings passion and grit. Batters like Aarif Sheikh, Anil Sah, Bhim Sharki, Gulshan Jha, and Kiran Thagunna provide stability and firepower. All-rounder Sompal Kami and spinners such as Karan KC could shine if conditions favor swing or grip. Playing in their “adopted home” in the UAE gives Nepal a boost, and after strong ACC showings, they’ll be hungry for an upset.
Key players: Rohit Paudel (c), Aarif Sheikh, Anil Sah, Bhim Sharki, Gulshan Jha, Kiran Thagunna, Kushal Bhurtel, with youth and experience blended across the squad.
Pitch & Conditions
Sharjah is known as a batter’s paradise with short boundaries and true bounce. Fast bowlers may get help early under lights, but dew later could make chasing easier. Expect scores in the 160–180 range. With temperatures around 35°C and high humidity, fitness will also play a role.
