Agency :
Sandeep Lamichhane will join Nepal’s T20 World Cup (WC) squad in the West Indies after missing matches in the United States because his visa was denied, the Nepal Cricket Association said on Monday.

Nepal had originally wanted to select former skipper Lamichhane, who had an eight-year sentence for rape quashed on appeal, but his US visa was denied twice despite intense lobbying.

The T20 World Cup is being co-hosted by the United States and West Indies.
