Next: the play-off, at home

Nepal finished in the bottom four of the League 2 table with the UAE, Namibia and Canada. That puts them in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-Off, and CAN has announced that Kathmandu will host it from 4 to 21 December.

• Eight teams, 50 overs a side.
• The four from League 2, plus two from each group of the Challenge League. Italy and Uganda have come through Group B. Group A isn't settled yet.
• The top four go to the 2027 Cricket World Cup Qualifier, hosted by South Africa and Namibia.

It's a big step on the road to the next World Cup, and it's at home.

India A series moves

Nepal's planned three games against India A on 9, 11 and 13 December clash with the play-off. CAN says new dates will be agreed with the BCCI and announced soon.
