Nepalese spinner Sandeep Lamichhane has joined his national team in the West Indies for the final two group stage matches of the T20 World Cup 2024. This development comes after Lamichhane was initially denied a visa to enter the USA, effectively ruling him out of the initial part of the tournament.
Visa Hurdles Overcome
Lamichhane faced significant hurdles when his visa application for the USA was denied, preventing him from participating in the earlier stages of the T20 World Cup. However, in a positive turn of events, he announced via social media that he had successfully arrived in the West Indies, where Nepal will face South Africa and Bangladesh in their final Group D matches.
Lamichhane’s arrival is expected to bolster Nepal’s bowling attack significantly. The spinner has been a pivotal figure in Nepal‘s cricket setup and his presence is likely to boost the team’s morale and performance as they aim to progress further in the tournament.
Key Fixtures Ahead
Nepal’s upcoming matches against South Africa and Bangladesh will be crucial in determining their fate in the tournament. The inclusion of Lamichhane adds depth and experience to the squad, providing a much-needed boost as they prepare to take on these formidable opponents.
