Nepal Takes on Qatar in Hong Kong: A T20I Showdown!
Cricket fans, get ready! A seriously exciting quadrangular T20I series just kicked off in Hong Kong, and things are already heating up. Nepal, Qatar, Hong Kong, China, and Kuwait are all battling it out, and let me tell you, the atmosphere is electric. Nepal won the toss against Qatar in the opening match on April 9th, 2025, and decided to field first. I mean, who doesn’t love a good toss-up? This whole tournament is already trending on Google – "Nepal vs Qatar" is practically blowing up!
When and Where to Catch All the Action
The tournament started April 9th and runs until April 13th, with six nail-biting matches before we get to the final showdown. There’s even a third-place playoff for those who just missed the top two spots. All the matches are happening at Mong Kok in Hong Kong. You can catch all the live action on FanCode. Unfortunately, for my fellow cricket lovers in India, there isn't a television broadcast. Bummer, right?
