Basant Oli, born on 1st April 2001 in the picturesque terrain of Nepal, emerged from humble beginnings to craft a remarkable cricketing journey. As a child, the vibrant spirit of Tulsipur resonated with Basant, who was drawn to the sound of leather on willow and the graceful fury of the cricket ball. His early days were spent on the dusty grounds, where he discovered a passion that would chart the course of his life.

Oli's ascent through the cricketing ranks in Nepal was as rapid as it was inspiring. An allrounder from the outset, he knew the value of versatility. Whether wielding the bat or delivering a searing left-arm-fast ball, Basant showed signs of a burgeoning talent capable of thriving on bigger stages. It wasn’t long before he made his professional debut for the Nepalese national team, a testament to his perseverance and innate flair for the game.

Such performances underlined his status as a dependable allrounder, one who could change the course of a game with bat or ball.

Oli's playing style is marked by his aggressive left-handed batting. He possesses an innate ability to manoeuvre the field with delicate sweeps and powerful drives, while his pace bowling is laced with swing and seam that can dismantle any opponent. His left-arm deliveries often leave batsmen guessing, and it's this unpredictability that's his greatest asset.

Among the rivalries, the encounters against Afghanistan's emerging stars have been a highlight of his career, each clash brimming with intensity and skill. Basant has been pivotal in these match-ups, his performances earning him accolades and respect from across the cricketing world.
