Their dedication and hard work lay the foundation for the games success, yet their contributions often go unnoticed. Capri Loans takes pride in honouring those who embody the ethos of Farz Nibhaatey Hain – fulfilling responsibilities with unwavering commitment. These groundsmen exemplify this spirit, shaping the dreams of aspiring cricketers and foster talent on the field. Its time we recognise their invaluable role and express our heartfelt gratitude for their efforts."
