In December 2014, the India Visually Impaired cricket team won the Blind Cricket Word Cup in Cape Town, adding this trophy to the T20 world cup they already have. On arrival back in Delhi they were greeted by a large crowd and a number of government ministers, such is the importance and popularity of the game in this cricket mad country.

In May they are touring the UK and will play three one day internationals and three T20 matches against an England team. The schedule is shown below and anyone who wants to come and watch is welcomed.  Prepare to be surprised at the skill and talent all of the players will display as well as witnessing cricket played in the true spirit of the game! And remember, that all the England players play for county teams supported by your donations to The Primary Club.
