BCCI comes up with camp for budding cricketers from North-East states at NCA

BCCI Secretary Jay Shah has said that the board will look out for players from the North-East regions and won’t leave any chance of tapping new talent. The National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru will soon be conducting a camp for budding cricketers from the north-eastern states to help them improve their skill-set. The players will be given the best infrastructural facilities and around 150 cricketers from various parts of Mizoram, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, and Sikkim will be a part of the camp and will be guided by the NCA head and India’s veteran cricketer VVS Laxman. 25 players from every mentioned region have been picked for the camp based on their performances up to the quarter-finals of the Cooch Behar Trophy (U-19). “This initiative by BCCI will give young and budding talents equal opportunity to hone their skills and represent India across formats. NE has enormous potential in sports and the board will keep no stone unturned to ensure that we are able to tap the best talent for the country,” BCCI secretary Jay Shah tweeted.
