Sandeep Lamichhane returns as Nepal ODI captain ahead of ACC Men's Premier Cup
Nepal have made a notable change to their leadership setup ahead of the ACC Men's Premier Cup, with leg-spinner Sandeep Lamichhane taking over as the team's new ODI captain from Rohit Paudel. The Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) has confirmed a 14-player squad for the tournament, which will be hosted by Malaysia from August 30 to September 12.

Previously, Lamichhane captained Nepal in 14 ODIs. Overall, he has played 77 ODIs, having 154 wickets.
Nepal squad for ACC Men's Premier Cup: Sandeep Lamichhane (capt), Rohit Paudel, Aasif Sheikh, Arjun Kumal, Dev Khanal, Dipendra Singh Airee, Basir Ahamad, Ishan Pandey, Gulshan Kumar Jha, Sher Malla, Lalit Narayan Rajbanshi, Karan KC, Hemant Dhami, Sundeep Jora
