Team Detail :: Nepal Vs Pakistan (U-19 Asia Cup)

Due to the fixture rearrangement, Nepal will play the first match of U-19 Asia Cup 2012 with Pakistan though according to the initial one, it was against India. Anyway the match against the Pakistan is as tough as with that of India as these two countries are equally powered by cricket. 


On the Nepal's first match of U-19 Asia cup 2012 Nepal is facing the strong opponent Pakistan. Pakistan has been the cricket power of the world that seems to be challenging for Nepali Squad to pace ahead.

Player without Nation : Issue of Sharad Veswakar

‘I love scoring goals for England and playing for England. That’s one of the reasons I didn’t retire - I love playing for my country,’ said David Beckham once, despite knowing he would not feature in the future plan of English football team. Arguably, David Beckham is one of the most celebrated names, if you consider European football post 1990s.

Sports psychologists tell you: Pride of playing for the country does make sportsmen run that extra mile, push the barriers a bit further, and makes them feel responsible. Because, in the back of their head, they’re thinking about trying to uplift masses that back them.

But can we imagine a situation where a player plays without a country? Impossible you’d say? Then what is the case of Sharad Vesawkar, one of the mainstays of Nepali Cricket team?

Sharad Veswakar, who has represented Nepal right from Under-15 level to national cricket team, does not have a citizenship of Nepal. Something wrong there? Yours truly says - it’s completely insane. It’s as if he doesn’t exist, except in the record books, where his century for Nepal stands.


Nepal Citizenship Act 2006 says, “Any person born at the time when his father or mother is a citizen of Nepal, shall be a citizen of Nepal by descent.” Furthermore, it adds, “A child born to a Nepali female citizen from marriage with a foreign citizen in Nepal and having permanent domicile in Nepal may be granted naturalized citizenship as prescribed, provided the child has not acquired the citizenship of a foreign country on the basis of citizenship of his father.”

Yes, Veswakar has a Nepali mother and has been residing in the country as far as he can remember. Yet the boy in his mid-twenties is not our own, at least legally. Worse, this is the status WE have given him. We take a lot of pride in collecting hundreds of thousands of rupees to send SMS to India, just to help a Nepali-speaking person become an Indian Idol (It should be noted that yours truly has no malice against Prashant Tamang or his singing). Yet we act indifferent, when somebody takes pride in playing for us and treat him with disdain.

“President is the only person we’ve not spoken to, on this issue. From the rest we’ve already received assurances,” this is what Nepali captain Paras Khadka had to tell this scribe during a conversation some time ago. Just over two years ago, a delegation of cricketers had met Madhav Kumar Nepal, then Prime Minister, to return with a bagful of promises. Two prime ministers later, the issue is just there, while several thousand more - a number of them non-Nepalis - have become ‘proud’ citizens of this country.

Over the years, we’ve seen so many cricketers, who showed a lot of promise at early age, taking to a foreign land, to have a secure future. But this man hasn’t budged. Whether he could not go out or did not wish to - is not the question. The question is: Can’t somebody stand up and say - you’ve done us proud and deserve to be a citizen of this country? Not that giving him citizenship would hurt national coffers.

He told this scribe once, “Whenever the issue is raised, I feel as if it’s a joke. I try not to think about it and focus on my cricket.” But any sane man can understand focus becomes a tad more difficult when you have more serious issues in your head.

Perhaps, it is a joke. Some cruel joke, where he is a victim of his own stardom, for he can’t go and pay a few thousand rupees - just like many do - to become a Nepali citizen. Till he musters up courage to do that, perhaps he will remain a refugee in his own country. For we have a habit of forgetting things - taking it too easy - especially if the issues are related to sports, no matter how important.

But, yours truly wishes his status would change and change for good. No matter how faint, hope remains.

The Nationality developed in Sports :: From Nepal

No person is an exception to this topic. A person who doesn't know Cricket, shows interest at the match if his/her country plays. Same in a person who doesn't know Football loves his/her nation playing in international level of Football Tournament. And this is The Sports Nationality. 

Mikasha's Station strongly places in post by seeing the interest of thousands of Nepali supporters clattering in social networking sites with thousands of comments and likes. There was no media to broadcast the live score except ESPN which was malfunctioning in many of the matches. At such critical condition, Nepali supporters broke the stone and searched different places and found NRN-Ireland which regularly went providing the most quick update, quicker than any other so called ESPN. Mikasha's Station too in collaboration with NRN-Ireland has broadcasted the live score event as a result of which we are much more impressed. We were impressed by the love of Nepali supporters towards their team despite their economic and technical difficulties. 

Nepal Government is thousands step behind the Nepalese. No Nepali media came ahead to broadcast the event. In this globalized world it would be easier to telecast the event via Communication Satellite but it was discarded by all the medias. Nepal Television (NTV) holding the paid authority to telecast the event was also found very late on updating the event. Mikasha's Station on Facebook as Score Breaker and on Twitter as @Mikasha judged the devotion of Nepali towards their Sports Team. 

The supporters were neither supporting the Cricket nor the Football but their National Team. A Nepali being frustrated with Football event was found cheering and exposing the pain of defeat which was supposed to heal with the result of Cricket. They were found wishing the treatment of Defeat in Football by the Victory in Cricket. 

This is the good sign to bright Sports Future. Is the unity of Nepali in International Event for other's defeat against them. It can certainly stood as a news in near future which will surely poke the Government of Nepal to do something for Sports, to build the infrastructure and develop new profession. 

Thank you!

Nepal Qualifies for ICC U-19 World Cup @ Australia - 2012

On a day when rains affected all but one game, plenty of action was witnessed as the jostling for the final six spots to qualify for the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup to be held next year in Australia heated up.

Hosts Ireland featured in another last over finish, this time against Nepal at the Bready Cricket Club. Nepal batted first and was restricted to 187 for seven in 46 overs as rains forced reduction in the number of overs. Ireland skipper George Dockrell picked up 3-15 even as Sagar Pun made 50 off 100 balls with three boundaries and a six.

Boundary :: 4 (Nepal)

In the chase, the home team lost early wickets, but Dockrell (55: 86b, 3×4) and Adam Coughlan (48:86b, 1×4) added 107 runs for the fifth wicket.

Once the partnership was broken, the chase fell apart. Nepal’s left-arm spinner Rahul Vishvakarma picked up four wickets in the final over to bowl out Ireland for 175 and earned his side a 10-run win.

Dockrell’s all-round effort earned him the Man of the Match award, but the skipper was a disappointed man: “We bowled well to restrict them, but they got a few runs towards the end which helped them a lot. The match was in the balance and we seemed to be getting close. But we lost wickets towards the end. We still have two more games to end the tournament well.”
