The Nepal cricket team will tour Kenya for five T20Is and three 50-over matches starting from August 25.
Kenya’s last involvement in T20I cricket was in the regional final of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021/22 Africa Qualifier, where they finished second to Uganda.
Nepal, meanwhile, are carrying some momentum as they won a 2022 Tri-series involving Papua New Guinea and Malaysia. They beat PNG by 50 runs in the final to make it five wins in their last five T20I games.
This will be the first T20I bilateral series between Nepal and Kenya.
All the Nepal tour of Kenya matches - five T20Is and three 50-over games - will be played at the Gymkhana Club Ground in Nairobi.
