World Twenty20 cricket 2014 schedule: Nepal first entry to world t20

Nepal created a history by making an entry to the ICC world T20 Cricket 2014 that is going to be held in Bangladesh from 16 March to 6 April. After the thrilling victory over Hongkong (for qualification) and lose to Afghanistan, Nepal even secured third place in the world t20 qualifier tournament with the defeat over UAE by 5 wickets. Six teams ( Nepal, Afghanistan, Ireland, Hongkong, UAE and Netherlands) from the tournament join Bangladesh and Zimbabwe for the preliminary round, forming two groups whose top team will be joining the other eight full members (India, Pakistan, Australia, South Africa, West Indies, New Zealand, Srilanka, and England) for the Super 10.
All the games from the world cup T20 cricket will be played in three stadiums in three different cities: namely Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet, whereas all of Nepal games in first stage will be played in Chittagong. First game of Nepal will be against Hongkong on 16th March 2014 ( 7:15 pm Nepali time), which we defeat in a thrilling chase for the qualification
Though I am thinking of going Bangladesh to cheer Nepal live, I am not sure if I can manage all to be there but its sure either Nepal TV or Kantipur TV will be broadcasting the event live. Otherwise ESPN, Star sports are always there for the world cup tournament.
The eight teams in the first stage are divided into two groups: Group A and Group B as:
Group A: Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Nepal and Hongkong
Group B: Zimbabwe, Ireland, UAE and Netherlands.
Here is the schedule for the group stage matches of ICC world cup t20 cricket in Nepali standard time (NST).
