I agree. Should support Nepal to make it like Afg is doing.
I thought, Ind would help them lot more. I thought ICC would help them more after 2014 WorldT20. Since then Nepal hasn’t been seen much in thw world stage.
Its got nice scenic places, landscapes. Stadium around those players will be wonderful. Cricket will benefit having another team that loves cricket, has a goos size population too grow further etc.

USA hasn't even qualified for the WC Qualifier this century, IIRC. Last time was in the 1997 ICC Trophy.

USA best performance in ICC event was in 2015 WCQ where they came quite near to qualifying because it was a young squad and had many players from US U19 but now this idiot coach is hellbent on selecting domestic players from SC.

Wow Nepal pulled off another one, they've got good fight but need to work on the start of their batting innings so they can build bigger scores and not put the lower order under so much pressure.

A huge day tomorrow. Cricket careers of UAE and Namibian players on line.
Many people say its pressure Associate players face but in my opinion, I think its a relaxed situation because they are educated (Namibia's case) and could get jobs even if they fail at cricket but ECB had just announced Central Contracts and that could be in trouble if they lose tomorrow.

Is ECB involved in this? Or does ECB mean Emirate Cricket Board? Same acronym as the English and Welsh cricket board, interesting.
