The Supreme Court has declined to issue an interim order regarding the Nepal Premier League (NPL), which the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) is set to organise.

A single bench led by Justice Hari Prasad Phuyal heard the petition concerning the NPL and rejected the request for an interim order.

Earlier, Aamir Akhtar, on behalf of Zora Sports Management Pvt Ltd, had filed a case with CAN and its central committee as defendants. Akhtar argued that he held the franchise rights to the NPL for 10 years, thereby claiming CAN should not be allowed to organise the league.

The NPL, organised by CAN, is scheduled to commence in Kathmandu on November 30, featuring eight franchise teams.
