The two teams have only met once before in any format, during an ODI at the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier. On that occasion, the West Indies won by 101 runs, riding on a score of 132 from Shai Hope. However, a West Indies 'A' side toured Nepal last year to play five unofficial T20Is, a fixture which the tourists won 3-2.
