National, Nepal T20 League

Chadwick Walton and Kesrick Williams to play for Janakpur Royals

Janakpur Royals have signed two West Indies superstars for the upcoming Nepal T20 League. After announcing Umesh Patwal as their head coach, Janakpur unveiled Chadwick Walton and Kesrick Williams as their foreign signing.

Walton and Williams are well known for their entertaining cricket and are expected to bring some Carrebian flavour in the inaugural Nepal T20 League. It will be interesting to see them play for the same franchise as they shared intense sledging and celebrations dedicated to each other.

Walton has represented his national side in all three formats, and the opener is known for his aggressive batting style. Williams, on the other hand, is a T20 specialist bowler having an experience in many franchise leagues around the globe.
