Sandeep Lamichhane (Nepali: सन्दीप लामिछाने, Nepali pronunciation: [sʌndip lamit͡sʰane] ; born 2 August 2000) is a Nepalese international cricketer, and current ODI captain of the Nepal national cricket team.
A right-arm leg spin bowler, Lamichhane has played for Twenty20 franchise teams around the world, including the Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash League (BBL), and the Lahore Qalandars in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). In the Bangladesh Premier League, he previously represented the Sylhet Sixers in 2019 and was signed by the Rajshahi Warriors for the 2025–26 season. He is Nepal's highest wicket taker in ODIs and Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).
Lamichhane made his T20I debut against the West Indies, where he represented a World XI team. He became the first cricketer to make a T20I debut representing a combined team. Lamichhane was one of the eleven cricketers to play in Nepal's first One Day International (ODI) match, against the Netherlands, in August 2018. In December 2021, Lamichhane was named the captain of Nepal national cricket team by Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN), replacing Gyanendra Malla.
Early and personal life
Lamichhane moved to Chitwan district and started training at Chitwan Cricket Academy, which is run by former captain Raju Khadka. During a visit by the captain, Paras Khadka, and coach of Nepal Pubudu Dasanayake, Lamichhane was asked to bowl in the nets and was selected for the national under-19 training camp.

Why this record matters
The phrase “nepalese cricketer” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 3, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q23884700. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2000, 2019, 2025 and 2018.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
