As a full-member nation, we see it as part of our responsibility to contribute to the development of cricket beyond our borders,&#8221; stated CEO Chris Dehring.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Supporting Nepal in this key phase of their cricketing journey not only builds the sport at the grassroots and international levels but also reminds us of the deep pride and honour associated with representing our nation and wearing our national colours. We are proud to stand with Nepal at this moment in their history and look forward to exciting and competitive cricket in Sharjah,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The West Indies team, which CWI states is known for its historical success and dynamic style of play, is expected to field a competitive squad. The series offers Nepal valuable exposure ahead of its\u00a0 World Cup qualifying campaign. Additionally, CWI promises that the matches present an opportunity for players and fans to experience international cricket in a lively, neutral setting.<\/p>\n<p>CWI extends its appreciation to the Cricket Association of Nepal and the Emirates Cricket Board for their collaboration in organizing the series.
