Dipendra, who has all the qualities needed for Twenty20, including leadership, needs the strong support of experienced players Binod Bhandari, Avinash Bohra, Arif Sheikh, and Ishan Pandey to fulfill his dream of becoming a champion. The team, including young players Naren Saud and Deepak Bohra, must also be ready for that.

Last year, the parade after the Janakpur Bolts won the title was a huge crowd in Madhesh Province. In Janakpur, there was a long line of people waiting to honor the winning team.
After seeing it in the video and photos, Dipendra Singh Airi was saying in an informal meeting, ‘If Sudurpaschim had won, an even bigger crowd could have gathered.’
Two things were clear in his words. The captain of Sudurpaschim had a great hunger for the title. The pain of the 5-wicket defeat in the final against Janakpur was clearly visible in him. Sudurpaschim had batted brilliantly in the final. But the team was prevented from becoming the champion of the first season because they could not get rid of Lahiru Milantha.
Dipendra, the world’s top all-rounder in Twenty20, was selected as the Player of the Series for Nepali players in the first season of the NPL. Dipendra, who has all the aspects needed for Twenty20 including leadership, needs the strong support of experienced players Binod Bhandari, Avinash Bohra, Arif Sheikh, and Ishan Pandey to fulfill his dream of becoming a champion. The team, including young players Naren Saud and Deepak Bohra, must also be ready for that.
The pressure on Sudurpaschim has increased after Saif Jaib left. The team has replaced Jaib with Australian veteran Chris Lynn. New Zealand fast bowler Scott Kuggeleijn and spin all-rounder Harmeet Singh were in Sudurpaschim last year as well. Kuggeleijn created a stir last year by taking 17 wickets on the Tribhuvan University wicket, which is considered a paradise for spin. Australian batter Josh Brown is a player capable of playing a big role in Sudurpaschim's goal.
Nepal's most successful coach Jagat Tamata is also adept at dreaming of titles. It remains to be seen where the coach and captain will take their joint dream. Sudurpaschim Royals- Dipendra Singh Airy (captain), Vinod Bhandari, Avinash Bohra, Arif Sheikh, Hemant Dhami, Ishan Pandey, Narine Saud, Deepak Bohra, Dipendra Thapa, Milan Bohra, Tech Rawat, Chris Lynn, Scott Kuglein, Harmit Singh, Josh Brown.
