West Indies Stars Load Own Luggage In Tempo On Arrival, Video Divides Internet
Some slammed Nepal for the poor reception, while other's thought that there is nothing wrong with the luggage being loaded into the tempo.
West Indies ‘A’ cricket team arrived in Nepal on Wednesday ahead of their five-match T20 series against the hosts, starting in Kirtipur on April 27. However, upon their arrival at the Kathmandu International Airport, the team received a shocking welcome as a tempo was waiting for them outside the airport to carry the players’ luggage. In a viral video, the West Indies players can be seen loading the luggage in the tempo with the aid of an helper, who was piling the kit bags and suitcases one over the other.
The video left a mix response from the fans on social media. Some slammed Nepal for the poor reception, while other’s thought that there is nothing wrong with the luggage being loaded into the tempo.
Meanwhile, Roston Chase will captain West Indies ‘A’ while Alick Athanaze will play the role of his deputy. In a historic first, the West Indies A team will engage in a series of five T20 matches against Nepal senior men’s team.
This tour holds importance as it serves as another phase in preparation leading up to the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The series also marks a historic occasion as it is West Indies’ first-ever tour to Nepal.

Chase will take on the responsibility of captain for the first time at this level. Commenting on Chase’s selection as captain, Desmond Haynes, CWI’s Lead Selector, emphasized Chase’s consistent display of diligence and leadership skills.
“Chase has exhibited over the past few years an impressive work ethic and proven leadership qualities. No doubt since Chase made his T20I debut in October 2021, for the West Indies against Bangladesh he has continued to make considerable strides,” Chase said in an official statement by CWI.
