Paras Khadka, skipper of Nepali cricket team said on
behalf of Nepali players that they are completely ignored by cricket's
governing body even on scheduling national tournament and paying them salary-allowance
as well.
Paras said explaining the reason behind boycott, 'we
are recently back in Nepal after playing the world cup and our next tournament
i.e. ACC Premier League is just 20 days away and CAN organizing national tournament
at same time. It means we don't get time for practice for one of the big ACC's
tournament. CAN, must think about timetable first before organizing any
tournaments.'
Nepali players also accused CAN for not giving them salary
and allowance for 8 months which they were promised. This is the first time
that Nepali players boycotting the cricket field showing dissatisfaction over
management of CAN.
