SS Events Pvt Ltd is organising the fifth edition of the Century Bank Corporate Super Sixes at the Tribhuvan University from November 26 to December 1.

A total of 24 corporate teams will take part in the five-over-a-side cricket tournament, informed SS Events Chief Executive Officer Raman Shiwakoti at a press meet today. The participating teams will be divided into eight groups and top two sides each from all pools after the round robin matches will make it to the round of 16. “SS Events came up with the concept of the tournament to bring out the recreational value to build the relationship among various corporate houses,” said Shiwakoti, who is also the technical Analyst and Team Manager of the national cricket team.
