The 2021–22 Nepal T20I Tri-Nation Series was a Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket tournament that took place in Nepal from 28 March to 4 April 2022.[1] The participating teams were the hosts Nepal along with Malaysia and Papua New Guinea.[2] The matches were played at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground in Kirtipur.[1] On 12 March 2022, the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) confirmed all the fixtures.[3]
Before the tri-nation series, Nepal played two One Day International (ODI) matches against Papua New Guinea.[4] Papua New Guinea won both of the matches, winning by six runs in the first ODI and by three wickets in the second one.[5] In the tri-nation series, Nepal became the first team to qualify for the final, after winning their first three matches.[6] Papua New Guinea joined Nepal in the final of the tri-series, after Malaysia lost heavily to Nepal in the final round-robin match.[7] Nepal defeated Papua New Guinea in the final by 50 runs to win the tournament with a 100% winning record.[8] Nepal's Dipendra Singh Airee, who was named player of match in the final for an all-round display in which he scored a half-century and took 4 wickets, was also named player of the series.[9]
