This video brought me into tears! Got goose skin, I have never been this much touched by a 9-minute-video clip. I was a very good cricketer when I was 14-15, played Jay Trophy (the national cricket tournament of Nepal back then) in 1999, man that was a long time ago. But since the game didn't have any prospect in Nepal, I basically gave up cricket for my studies. I have achieved a lot abroad because of my studies, working as a teacher right now, get paid well. But never been as happy as I was when I walked out to open with the bat for my team back in 1999!
I wish I could turn back the hands of time, rewrite my destiny, and become a professional cricketer instead of a teacher and start playing for Nepal with Shakti Gauchan (we played a lot of cricket together).
Good luck Nepal cricket. I am sure we will not only make it to 2015 world cup but also it might not be long when Nepalese cricketers are gonna be purchased by cash-rich Indian Premier League franchises. As it says in the video, Nepalese cricketers are naturally very talented!
