South African cricket legend Dale Steyn has made an open proposal to the Nepal Cricket Team after their bitter clash with the England Cricket Team. England were just 4 points away from relegation at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
Nepal is set to pull off an upset today (February 8), which could be a historic moment for Nepali cricket and the entire cricketing world. England’s match against Nepal proved that cricket is not limited to statistics or numbers; it is an 11v11 battle where anything can happen.

Star was so impressed that he offered his services directly to the cricket team. Now, his followers on social media platform ‘X’ want to know which role in Nepal he is best suited for.
Since he is in his forties and has long since retired from professional cricket, a coaching position would be the best fit for him. Currently, the former pacer is working as a commentator for the 2026 T20 World Cup.
