Early life and career

Bohara was born in Salyan district of Nepal. As a child, he always wanted to join the army. However, after failing to succeed in the army trials, he commenced his cricket journey representing the Nepalgunj (then region no. 5) U-19 cricket team. He claimed seven wickets (three against Baitadi and four against Birgunj) in two matches for Nepalgunj in the 2014 National U-19 Cricket Tournament and believes that gave him more confidence to choose cricket as a career option.[2]

In January 2020, Bohara was named in Nepal's One Day International (ODI) squad for the 2020 Nepal Tri-Nation Series.[12] He made his ODI debut against Oman, on 5 February 2020.[13] In September 2020, he was among the eighteen cricketers awarded a central contract by the Cricket Association of Nepal.[14]
