KATHMANDU, Jan 22: Dhangadhi Premier League’s (DPL) franchise Dhangadhi Stars has signed an agreement for title sponsorship with Global College of Management for the third edition of far-west’s lucrative T20 cricket event.

Stars’ owner Krishna Bohora and chief executive officer (CEO) of Global College Khagendra Ojha signed on the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at an event held in Kathmandu on Monday. 

The deal states that the sponsorship amount will be more than Rs 2 million, and its duration will be a year.
“Global College wants to help more kids from across the country, and those coming from far-west are under special consideration. We want to help them do well when they represent the national team in future,” Ojha said. 

“We are trying our best to create a better environment to help promising players from the most productive part of Nepal. It is part of our social responsibility. We are delighted to be associated with cricket franchise Stars,” Ojha added.
