About

Bhurtel represented Nepal in the 2016 Under-19 Cricket World Cup, but then spent several years on the periphery of Nepal's senior team. He made his debut for Nepal in the 2020–21 Nepal Tri-Nation Series. During this series, he scored half-centuries in his first three matches, the first player in Twenty20 International history to do so. He was a member of Nepal's squad for both the 2024 and 2026 ICC Men's T20 World Cups.

In May 2026, he became the sixth player overall, and the second from Nepal, in T20Is to smash six consecutive sixes in a single over, achieving the feat against China during the Asian Games – Men's Qualifier.
