The ICC, the apex body of world cricket, has lifted the control funding imposed on Nepal.

Issuing a statement on Tuesday, the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) said that the ICC has lifted control funding imposed on Nepal.

The ICC sent a letter on Monday stating that the control funding imposed on Nepal has been fully relaxed and from onwards Nepal will be able to receive financial grants like other associate countries who have achieved one day status and can organize national-level tournaments and activities, the CAN said in the statement.

According to the statement signed by CAN Chairman Chet Bahadur Chand, the ICC lifted the control funding based on evaluation of the best performance in financial transparency.
