The agreement was signed by Mr. Binod Kunwar, representing Extratech Oval, and Mr. Ishwar GC, Chairman of Lumbini Lions.

We want to convey our special thanks to the Extra Over team; they are doing such tremendous work through private investment, and from our side, we have joined to encourage and become partners with them.
We believe this will contribute greatly not only to Lumbini but to the overall development of Nepali cricket, and accordingly, we are making a collective commitment to take Nepali cricket to greater heights.”
