Dipendra Singh Airee (Nepali: दिपेन्द्र सिंह ऐरी; Tiger, born 24 January 2000) is a Nepalese cricketer.[1][2] In August 2018, he was one of the eleven cricketers to play in Nepal's first-ever One Day International (ODI) match, against the Netherlands.[3] He is regarded as one of the best all rounders in Nepal.

He was a member of Nepal's squad for the 2018 ICC World Cricket League Division Two tournament.[9]
