Nepal will meet four Division 1 teams in the World T20
Qualifiers 2013 to be held in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in November.
The official draw and calendar are yet to be published but

has been drawn in Pool B alongside Afghanistan, the Netherlands, Scotland,
Kenya, Bermuda, Papua New Guinea and the runner-up of the European Qualifiers,

Bermuda during the World Cricket League Division 3 held in Bermuda recently.

States, the UAE and the winner of the European Qualifiers have been drawn in
