While English fans were few at the Wankhede on Sunday, Nepal enjoyed massive support.
Chetan Kesi, part of a group of 20 Nepal fans, especially flew down from Kathmandu.
“We’re here to support Nepal. Our players are working hard and in future we will be an important team in the World Cup. There are around 3000 to 4000 fans here,” Kesi told mid-day.
Meanwhile, English couple Garry and Clare Pheasey from Manchester are enjoying the cricket as well as looking forward to celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary on February 10 here.
“I remember, immediately after our wedding in 2021, we went to Sri Lanka to watch England play cricket and now we’re here to see England again,” said Clare.
