An allrounder who bats in the middle order and bowls medium pace, Paras Khadka has represented Nepal in three Under-19 World Cups, in 2004, 2006 and 2008. He bowled the crucial last over in the Plate semi-final against South Africa in 2006 to take his team into the final and finished the tournament as the highest wicket-taker for Nepal. Khadka was the Man of the Tournament in the U-19 ACC Trophy in 2007, a performance which helped Nepal qualify for what will be his last U-19 World Cup. Khadka took 12 wickets in the 2008 World Cup and led Nepal to their second successive Plate final.
