  • The Netherlands has featured in five ODI World Cup tournaments.
  • Scotland has participated in the global event on three occasions.
  • The United Arab Emirates and Namibia have played in the World Cup twice and once respectively.

An analysis of current international cricket fixtures reveals an interesting pattern regarding teams that frequently play against Nepal. While the national side has not yet qualified for the main World Cup tournament, four of its regular opponents hold prior experience playing in the global competition. Among this group, the Netherlands holds the most extensive tournament history, having made five appearances in the marquee event. Scotland follows with three appearances across past editions of the competition. Furthermore, the United Arab Emirates has participated twice in the global showcase, while Namibia has featured in the tournament once. At present, the United Arab Emirates shares the qualification pathway alongside Nepal, though its standing at the bottom of League Two creates additional pressure to defend its ODI status via upcoming playoffs.
