Ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup in June, Head Coach Darren Sammy emphasizes the significance of the West Indies A team’s tour of Nepal as part of their preparation.
The historic series, slated from April 27 to May 4 in Kirtipur, marks the first time a West Indies team has toured Nepal.
Comprising five T20 matches, this tour presents a valuable opportunity for the team to fine-tune their skills just before the world cup kicks off.

As the West Indies A team gears up for their tour of Nepal, the coaching staff, players, and stakeholders are unified in their efforts to maximize preparation and readiness for the ICC T20 World Cup.
