In spite of being loads of talent in certain players,they failed to perform in international cricket. Their dedication and performance in domestic tournaments opens the door of national side.
But playing in higher level put them in pressure and fails to play their natural game.As a result they are dropped without contributing anything to the team.
Here are 3 most hyped Nepali players who failed in international cricket:
1. Pawan Sarraf
Pawan sarraf, a remarkable name in Nepal U-19 team burst into the international as a young gun of Nepal cricket. A talented all-rounder, Pawan performed excellent in both domestic and youth tournaments which led him to get picked for national side in 2019.
He played some short fine innings for Nepal but couldn’t make it big. He averages just 12 in T20I after playing 12 matches scoring just 104 runs. In ODI, he had played just 2 matches scoring 12 runs. Earlier, he had played 5 List A matches contributing just 77 runs to the team.
Emerging of lots of talent from youth side, it seems,that Sarraf won’t be featuring to international cricket soon.
2. Ishan Pandey
The youngster, Ishan Pandey had heat the social media after his selection in National team. The reason behind this was his dual frame in his career.He is a MBBS student who never failed to kill his dedication towards cricket.
A left handed talented young batsmen who seems to have ability to provide fine start for Nepal failed again and again in International matches.
He is yet to play an ODI for Nepal but has featured in 4 T20I for Nepal contributing just 33 runs. With Paras Khadka taking the place of opener , Pandey got dropped from the side.
3. Sundeep Jora
Sundeep Jora is another talent which failed in his international field. Despite having record of youngest player to hit T20I Half-century in his international carrer, he couldn’t replicate his form in international level further.
Featuring in 6 T20I ,he averages just 20.In two List-A matches he played for Nepal, he scored just 19 runs.
Having high demand at domestic level, Jora’s failure in international level make a serious issue in team management of Nepal. We can hope that these young guns make their count this time around.
