Nepali team assistant coach Gyanendra Malla has decided not to participate in the Twenty20 World Cup. Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) spokesperson Chhumbi Lama said that Malla has already withdrawn his name from the team going to the World Cup.
Gyanendra had been in Nepal's training team since last year. He was preparing to go to the World Cup with the Nepali team. But two weeks ago, when the Nepali team went to the Extratech Oval Stadium in Rupandehi for preparation, Gyanendra was already absent. Basanta Shahi had taken over as assistant coach there.
The National Independent Party has put him on the proportional list for the parliamentary elections scheduled for Falgun 21. For this reason, Gyanendra said that he withdrew his name from the list of the Nepali team going to the World Cup and informed CAN.
'I withdrew my name because it was not right to be with the Nepali cricket team on moral grounds,' Gyanendra told Kantipur. Gyanendra was the vice-captain when Nepal first played the 2014 World Cup. Gyanendra, who had been with the Nepali team since 2005, retired from playing in 2023.
He became the captain of the Nepali team after Paras Khadka.
