Nepal cricket a success story - chairman - 04-17-2016
At Tribhuvan University’s cricket ground, the main international arena in Nepal which was forced to undergo a number of repairs after last year’s earthquakes, the national team hosted Namibia for a 50 over match.
Not for anything like the first time, the ground was mobbed by supporters. According to reports, 10,000 tickets were sold, 5,000 more were outside the stadium, and it was also shown live on national television.
Not all expansion territories will have such a ready take up as Nepal. But surely their success story proves it is at least worth a try.
