Lamichhane, 22, is seemingly Nepal’s most high-profile cricketer, the main one to have played in T20 associations all over the planet, including the IPL, Australia’s Huge Slam Association, the Bangladesh Head Association, the Lanka Chief Association and the Caribbean Head Association. His distinction developed dramatically when in January 2018, at age 17, he turned into the principal Nepalese player to be gobbled up at an IPL closeout, getting an offered of INR 20 lakh (at the time USD 31,000 approx.) from Delhi Daredevils.’

Since his international debut in May 2018, he has represented Nepal in 30 ODIs and 44 T20Is. One of the highlights for him was a take of 17 wickets in a Player-of-the-Tournament performance at 2018 WCL Division Two in Namibia, driving Nepal into the World Cup Qualifier for just the second time of all time. In December 2021, Lamichhane replaced Gyanendra Malla as Nepal’s captain, and is currently the 6th youngest man to captain an ODI team. Lamichhane is currently at present the second-fastest man to 50 ODI wickets and is the third-fastest man to 50 T20I wickets.
