Nepal have appointed former Australia seamer Ian Harvey as their men's bowling consultant in the lead-up to the 2026 T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka.

Harvey will join the coaching staff led by Stuart Law, who is currently serving as Nepal's head coach.

The 53-year-old, known for his variations and changes of pace as a bowler, brings with him considerable international and domestic experience. He played 73 ODIs for Australia, taking 85 wickets and scoring 715 runs, and was part of the squad that won the 2003 ODI World Cup in South Africa.

After his playing career, Harvey went on to coach Gloucestershire.

Nepal will open their T20 World Cup campaign against England on February 8 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
