The Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) has announced that the Nepalese team will tour Sri Lanka before the CWC League 2 Series. As part of their preparation for a crucial series in Canada, Nepal will play a three-match One Day series against Sri Lanka Development Squad.
The squad for the tour has already been announced, with Rohit Paudel set to lead the 19-player team during their week-long stay in Sri Lanka. Both Paudel and DS Airee, who were in Canada following the GT20, will also be participating in the series.
The team will have a practice session on September 2 before playing the first match on September 3. After a day of rest, Nepal will play the second and third matches on September 5 and 7, respectively.
