Kritika Marasini, a left-handed spinner, is a first-time feature on the national women’s cricket team. The last time Nepal played a match, Asmina Karmacharya took five wickets against the UAE. Due to rain, Nepal lost that match against the UAE.
Sita Rana Magar is in very good form; she recently performed amazing in the Fête Break tournament in Hong Kong.
