Covers 14 matches between Nepal and USA from Feb 2020 to May 2026 (Tests, ODIs and T20Is with ball-by-ball records).
The Nepal vs USA head to head has produced two ties in just 14 matches, which tells you how close these sides can be. Nepal still lead overall with 8 wins to the USA’s 4, covering ODIs and T20Is from Feb 2020 to May 2026.
In ODIs Nepal are ahead 6-4 with one tie. In T20Is, all played at Grand Prairie Stadium near Dallas in Oct 2024, Nepal won twice and the third game was tied before Nepal took the super over. The latest meeting, an ODI at Kirtipur on 22 May 2026, went to Nepal by 122 runs.
Nepal vs USA Cricket Match Results Over Time
The ODI story has three phases. Nepal opened with two home wins at Kirtipur in Feb 2020, the second after skittling the USA for 35 inside 12 overs, still the smallest total these teams have produced. The middle years were even: a tie at Pearland on 11 Jun 2022, a USA win at the same ground that week, and a Nepal win in Harare in Jun 2023.
Then the USA won three ODIs in a row: by 37 runs at Dallas in Nov 2024, by 106 runs in Dubai in late Oct 2025 and by 4 wickets at the ICC Academy days later. Nepal ended that run at home in May 2026, winning by 9 wickets and then by 122 runs. Nepal’s 317/8 in that last game is the record total for the fixture.
Each method has brought 5 ODI wins, batting first or second, on a first-innings norm of 247. Oddly, a correct toss call has led to victory in only 3 of 10 ODIs with a result.
