Nepal is going to field first in three national Twenty20 series. Nepal's captain Rohit Paudel won the toss and invited the Netherlands to bat at the Tetwood Cricket Ground in Glasgow on Monday.
It is the first match in Nepal's tournament. In the tournament that started on Sunday, the Netherlands was defeated by the home team Scotland by 39 runs in the first match.
This is Nepal's 100th game in Twenty20 International. Nepal played its first match in the Twenty20 World Cup in Bangladesh in 2014 against Hong Kong. From Nepal, Dipendrasingh Airi and Karan KC are participating in the maximum 79 matches in Twenty20 internationals.
Nepal has allowed Kiran Thagunna and Rupesh Singh to 'debut' in Twenty20 internationals. All-rounder Kiran reached Hong Kong as an alternate player last month but was unable to play. Rupesh, a batting all-rounder from Madhesh Pradesh, started his journey to List 'A' by playing against Ireland 'A' in Kirtipur last year.
