[edit] Biography

Born in 1980,[2] he first played for Nepal in the 1998 ACC Trophy in Nepal, playing against the UAE and Hong Kong. He played in the Under-19 World Cup in Sri Lanka in 2000[3] in which Nepal finished eighth.[5] He returned to the senior side for that year's ACC Trophy in the United Arab Emirates, though he only played one match.[3]

He played in three matches at the 2001 ICC Trophy in Ontario,[6] scoring 52 in the match against Germany, which is Nepal's only half-century in the ICC Trophy.[4] After playing in the 2002 ACC Trophy in Singapore[3] he made his first-class debut in 2004 when he played against the UAE in the 2004 ICC Intercontinental Cup. He also played against them in the 2005 tournament.[7]

In 2005 he played in the repêchage tournament of the 2005 ICC Trophy,[3] in which Nepal finished third after beating Qatar in a play-off.[8] He then spent some time away from the Nepal national side, returning for the 2007 ACC Twenty20 Cup in Kuwait, his most recent appearance for Nepal.[3]
