The Nepali cricket team has seen many changes since its debut in the 2014 T20 World Cup. One player who has remained a constant presence is Sompal Kami. Kami made his T20I debut in the 2014 World Cup at the age of 18, and since then, he has played 65 T20I matches, taking 59 wickets and scoring 315 runs. In the 2024 T20 World Cup, Kami is the only survivor from the debut World Cup team and the only player to have represented Nepal in two World Cups [13acd5ee].
Nepal's first match in the 2024 T20 World Cup was against the Netherlands, which they lost. Kami mentioned the differences in playing across the two tournaments, stating that T20 cricket has become faster now [13acd5ee].
Kami's longevity in the national team is a testament to his skills and dedication to the sport. Despite the changes in the team and the evolving nature of T20 cricket, Kami has consistently performed well and contributed to Nepal's success on the international stage. His experience and expertise make him a valuable asset to the team [13acd5ee].
