West Indies suffered a new low as they were bowled out for just 83 to lose their T20 series with minnows Nepal in the United Arab Emirates. Nepal, who are ranked 18th in the world, had never played a T20 series against a full member nation before this week but have won the three-match series with a game to spare. West Indies, who are sixth in the T20 rankings, never got going in the chase, with only three batters reaching double figures. Nepal, who are coached by Australian Stuart Law, take part in qualifiers for the 2026 T20 World Cup next month - they played at the 2024 and 2014 tournaments. West Indies fast bowler Alzarri Joseph, meanwhile, has been ruled out of next month's two-Test series against India due to the recurrence of a back injury.
