Background
Cricket in Nagaland received a significant boost when the BCCI extended full membership to the Nagaland Cricket Association, allowing the state to field a senior team in national domestic competitions such as the Ranji Trophy, the Vijay Hazare Trophy, and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Players from the state, including Lemtur, have represented Nagaland in these tournaments as part of the broader expansion of Indian domestic cricket into the North East.

Lemtur has featured for the Nagaland cricket team in BCCI-organised domestic competitions. The Nagaland side is administered by the Nagaland Cricket Association and plays its home fixtures within the state.
Significance
The inclusion of cricketers such as Lemtur reflects the wider development of competitive cricket in India's North East, a region that historically had limited representation in the senior domestic structure prior to the BCCI's 2018 reforms.
