Kushal Bhurtel, the explosive opener for Nepal, has made headlines by achieving back-to-back centuries in T20I cricket during the Asian Games men's cricket qualifiers. In a recent match against Malaysia, Bhurtel scored a remarkable 126 runs off just 54 balls, contributing significantly to Nepal's total of 275 runs. This performance came shortly after he had already scored a century against China, making him only the 10th male cricketer in T20I history to hit centuries in successive innings. His innings against Malaysia featured 14 boundaries and 8 sixes, showcasing his aggressive batting style. Alongside wicketkeeper Aasif Sheikh, who scored 68 runs, Bhurtel helped Nepal secure a dominant 167-run victory. With this win, Nepal continues its quest for a spot in the tournament final, where they will face Oman. Bhurtel's extraordinary achievements have placed him in an elite group of cricketers, including Rilee Rossouw and Sanju Samson, further establishing his reputation in associate cricket.
