Nepal and India will clash in the CAVA Women’s Volleyball Nations League final today. The highly anticipated match will be held at the National Sports Council Covered Hall in Tripureshwar, kicking off at 5 PM Nepal time.
Nepal secured their spot in the final after a thrilling straight-set victory over Iran in yesterday’s semi-finals. India also advanced by defeating Sri Lanka.
The two teams have a history of competitive matches, with Nepal notably upsetting India in the group stage – their first-ever win against their South Asian rivals. However, India remains a formidable opponent, having topped the league stage.
Nepal’s strong performance throughout the tournament has been attributed to the exceptional skills of players like Niruta Thagunna, Usha Bhandari, Saraswoti Chaudhary, and Libero Salina Shrestha. Despite facing challenges, the team is confident in their ability to clinch the gold medal.
The bronze medal match between Iran and Sri Lanka will precede the final at 2 PM.
