Current Netherlands Internationals Wesley Barresi (Wicket-keeper) and Michael Rippon (All-rounder) have wished all success to the Nepali T20 league, TVS Everest Premier League.
The tournament, to be played from 18th – 29th Dec, 2017 is an ICC sanctioned event with foreign players from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka & Hong Kong signed up by various franchise teams.
Barresi took to twitter to express his best wishes to the tournament:
Great to see the @eplt20official is finally hitting the fans of @NepalCricket just what they wanted! Hope it all goes well and everyone has a good time watching some entertaining cricket! @paras77

His Dutch teammate Michael Rippon (Currently playing domestic cricket in New Zealand) also echoed Barresi’s opinions on his twitter timeline:
Great news!

Although the approval has been given only for this year’s edition, one hopes that the quality of cricket and crowd enthusiasm will pursue ICC to conduct it every year till the country’s official cricket board is constituted.
