He was a squad player for the NT U19s in 2014 AFC qualifiers I think but the coach preferred Sajid Dhot and Sarthak Golui. Since then, Nim Dorjee has stepped up and become a regular starter for Shillong in his first season at centre back, while Sarthak and Sajid continues to play kiddie football. I was impressed how calm he looked on the ball and he looks good in one on one situations. He is also akin to the modern day ball-playing centre back.
I don't want to use the term "overage" flippantly. There are plenty of people who will look younger or older than their years and basing any pertinent decisions on how they look is not something I subscribe to.
