The KwaZulu-Natal Inland Cricket Union has concluded a sponsorship agreement with Pietermaritzburg-based firm AET Security.
They will take on the role of sponsor of the Tuskers and the Pietermaritzburg Oval, following the conclusion of a two-year agreement. It’ll see the Tuskers team called the AET Tuskers and the stadium the AET Pietermaritzburg Oval.
“We wish to thank AET Security for their partnership with the Tuskers and the stadium. It is so nice to have local businesses get involved in the team,” said KZN Inland Chief Executive Officer Jason Sathiaseelan. “This sponsorship will ensure an upgrade of the stadium. Apart from the cash injection, AET have committed to assist with the maintenance of the facility. This has been a concern with lack of funding, but this partnership will bring the stadium to life again.”

“We at AET Security hope to inspire our community and bring back the memories we as children made at the The Oval in our youth. We encourage the next generation to enjoy the sporting culture of our home town,” said AET Director Talha Sujee.
