Embassy of India in Kathmandu, Nepal, successfully organized the second edition of the Indian Ambassador’s Cricket Tournament from last Friday to Sunday at the Tribhuvan University Cricket Ground and Mulpani Cricket Stadium. The tournament brought together eight teams representing the Embassy of India, Nepal’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the diplomatic community in Kathmandu, Nepali media, former Nepali cricketers, Government of Nepal officials, corporate organizations, and the Indian diaspora in Nepal (ICAN).

Following three days of spirited and competitive matches, which concluded with the presentation of trophies to the winning team and outstanding performers, the Ambassador of India to Nepal presented professional-grade cricket kits to three promising Nepali women’s U-19 cricketers: Sana Praveen, Krishma Gurung, and Sabitri Dhami. He also wished them success in the ICC U-19 Women’s T20 World Cup, scheduled for next year. The tournament reflects India’s commitment to strengthening people-to-people ties with Nepal through sports and supporting the development of young sporting talent in the country.
