The midfielder plays for the Tibet national football team since 2007. Dhundup is top scorer since the 6-0 victory of Tibet against Delhi XI, on August 4, 2007, since the foundation of the Tibetan team in 1999.

He was held in a cell by the Nepalese immigration department, before being handed back to the Chinese authorities, at the Tibet-Nepal border at Tatopani. Exiled Tibetans and supporters have demanded his release.[2]
