New Delhi: The Indian Deaf Cricket Association (IDCA)’s Women’s 5th T-10 National Cricket Championship for Deaf organised in Chandigarh concludes with a spectacular closing ceremony. The Chief Guest of the Ceremony, Sh. Sanjay Tandon, President – Union Territory Cricket Association Chandigarh. presented the winning trophy to the Maharashtra and the runner-up trophy to the Delhi.

Addressing the gathering, Mr. Sanjay Tandon, President, UTCA said, not only UT Cricket Association felt proud to associate with IDCA for this tournament but it’s been a privilege for Chandigarh to host a wonderful event of its own kind. IDCA and Sumit Jain are doing a magnificent job for bringing such hidden talents to the cricket mainstream not only in India but overseas as well. I learnt about the Bilateral Series being played at England wherein India emerged victorious by 5-2, which suggests the exposure to deaf cricket is just not confined to home but also overseas. My best wishes to Mr Jain and his team for his future endeavours. Moving ahead, we, at UT Cricket Association would love to partner with IDCA for hosting such more tournaments for deaf.

Addressing the gathering, Mr. Sumit Jain, President, IDCA said, “It was an exhilarating match that kept us on the edge of our seats from beginning to end. The players displayed their exceptional skills on the field and their passion for the game through their outstanding performance. This performance showcased how far they have come in terms of polishing their skills and their overall development. I congratulate all the winners and players who were part of this tournament and commend their dedication and hard work, which made the event a tremendous success. I would also like to thank our sponsors, without whom this tournament would not have been possible.
