Kathmandu, April 18
Early on Monday morning, cricket lovers had already descended on Kirtipur to watch Nepal v Namibia World Cricket League match. The entire cricket ground looked blazing red with fans wielding the Nepali national flag and sporting the flag painted on their cheeks and their faces, emboldened by an earlier win that Nepal secured against the African country on Saturday.
The cricket ground and the vicinity is literally brimming with thousands of spirited fans, who are encouraging Team Nepal to give their best. Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, Home Minister Shakti Basnet and Sports Minister Satya Narayan Mandal are among some of the high-profile figures that are watching the match live at Kirtipur.
Here are some of the glimpses from the beautiful game that have made the game all the more beautiful:
