National Identity at the Core of Design

The 2026 jersey marks a departure from recent iterations, opting for a deep navy blue base with prominent crimson red accents on the shoulders and sides. A key change in the branding sees the word "NEPAL" emblazoned across the chest in bold white lettering, replacing the yellow font used in previous years.

In a tribute to the nation’s heritage, the design incorporates the crescent moon and the sun from the Nepali national flag on opposite shoulders. The base of the jersey features a subtle yet striking graphic of Mount Everest, symbolising the team's aspirations to reach new heights in international cricket.
