Needing 21 of the last two overs against Canada, Karan KC had all the moments to be a hero and he utilized the opportunity in the most beautiful way. He made 12 runs and 1 run added by Sandeep Lamichane- Nepal first entry to the IPL. Of the last over, Nepal needed 8 runs. The first four ball went dot and Karan KC hit a 6 of the fifth ball. The six ball was a wide. Nepal needed 1 run of the last ball. And, Karan KC did it for Nepal. We are through to the World Cup Qualifier. Sandeep Lamichane, our bowling sensation is also the leading wicket taker in the tournament with 16 wickets.

Karan KC is the new hero in town.
Nepal plays the World Cup Qualifier, and that's a big thing to us. Our boys deserve all the accolades. We are just a step away from playing the big game- the world cup, and perhaps finding our way through with an ODI status.
For the rest of the cricketing world, Nepal is definitely a team to watch, and needs a big support throughout.
Congratulations to all of us- to the people playing in the field, and to the rest of us watching and supporting from/outside the field.
Thank you. This is a big reason to celebrate. Another Diwali on Valentine's day. The nation celebrates.
