Sher Malla

Sher Malla is an exciting young all-rounder and a rising star in the Nepalese national setup, known for his left-handed batting and right-arm off-break bowling. Born in December 2002, he first made waves in the youth circuits, representing Nepal Under-19 and Nepal 'A' before earning a place in the senior squad's closed camp in 2025. Malla is celebrated for his tactical discipline and ability to anchor the lower middle order, often providing crucial runs when the specialist batters struggle. His bowling offers a deceptive flight and turn that has consistently troubled domestic and international opponents, establishing him as a 'Dhangadhi Dynamo' with a reputation for breaking high-value partnerships during the middle overs.

His stock rose dramatically in late 2025 following a stellar campaign in the Nepal Premier League (NPL), where he emerged as a genuine match-winner for the Lumbini Lions. Malla finished the 2025 season as the tournament's Emerging Player and joint-highest wicket-taker, claiming 17 wickets with an exceptional average of 13.76 and a disciplined economy rate of 6.50. These performances were instrumental in guiding his team to the NPL championship and earned him a call-up to the final 15-member squad for the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. As he prepares for his debut on the world stage, Malla’s blend of youthful exuberance and big-match temperament makes him a critical 'X-factor' in Nepal's spin-heavy bowling arsenal.
