Sagar Pun is one of Nepal’s understated yet crucial cricketers—a calm and reliable all-rounder who has contributed quietly but significantly in Nepal’s rise through the ranks of Associate cricket. Born on March 1, 1993, in Pokhara, Nepal, Sagar emerged from a city known for its scenic beauty, but also steadily growing as a cricketing hub. From those local grounds, Sagar rose with purpose, discipline, and a passion for the game that would earn him a spot in the national team. His cricket journey began in earnest through the youth ranks, and he represented Nepal at the U-19 level, where his utility with both bat and ball was quickly noticed. A solid middle-order batter and a smart off-spinner, Sagar brought versatility to the side—able to bowl tight spells, rotate strike, and hold the innings together under pressure. He made his senior debut in 2013, and soon became a regular in Nepal’s key tournaments. Sagar’s breakout moment came during the 2014 ICC World Cup Qualifier and the ACC tournaments, where he impressed with his temperament and cricketing sense. He was often used as a floater in the batting lineup—slotting in wherever needed—and his off-spin added valuable depth to the bowling attack. He could tie down an end in the middle overs or sneak in crucial wickets when needed most. What made Sagar stand out was not just his skillset, but his calmness under pressure. Whether Nepal was chasing a target or defending a low total, Sagar often delivered when it mattered—playing the kind of intelligent, measured cricket that every team needs but often goes unnoticed. Over time, as younger players began entering the squad, Sagar’s appearances in the national side became less frequent, but his presence in the domestic circuit remained strong. In tournaments like the Prime Minister Cup and Everest Premier League, he consistently delivered performances that kept him in contention. He also began mentoring young players, especially spinners, helping develop Nepal’s next generation. Off the field, Sagar Pun is soft-spoken and grounded. He’s involved in community coaching programs and frequently gives back to Pokhara’s cricketing community, encouraging more youth from western Nepal to pursue the game seriously. As of 2025, while Sagar may not be the flashiest name in Nepal cricket, his contribution has been essential—a steady hand, a thoughtful cricketer, and a team player through and through.
