    BCCI Backs Global Roadmap To Strengthen Cricket For The Blind

    By IANS News February 20, 2026 • 19:18 PM View: 169
    The Cricket Association: The Cricket Association for the Blind in India (CABI) has expressed its sincere appreciation to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for their historic commitment to the development of visually impaired cricketers at the global stage.

    Over the past decade, India’s visually impaired cricketers have established an extraordinary legacy on the global stage, winning multiple Men’s World Cup titles since 2012 and securing a historic inaugural Women’s World Cup triumph. The BCCI’s formal backing now ensures that this success is not only celebrated but sustained and elevated through structured support at the highest level.

    This significant milestone follows a series of constructive discussions led by Jay Shah, Chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC), whose continued advocacy for inclusive growth in cricket has been instrumental in shaping this collaboration. Shah engaged closely with CABI leadership, including Dr Mahantesh G. Kivadasannavar (Chairman) and Shailender Yadav (General Secretary), to ensure that blind cricket receives the structural support it rightfully deserves.
