The BCCI on Saturday announced a support framework for the Cricket Association for the Blind in India (CABI), underlining its commitment to inclusive growth and greater opportunities across Indian cricket. It said, "The initiative reflects the importance of inclusive growth in cricket, an approach that ICC Chairman Jay Shah has advocated during his tenure as BCCI Secretary and continues to support in his role at the ICC."

The initiative, which focuses on international exposure, home series support, and access to BCCI-affiliated venues, has been widely appreciated across the disability cricket ecosystem. DCCI office-bearers described the move as a progressive shift that strengthens opportunities and professional pathways for visually impaired cricketers.

DCCI Vice President Sumit Jain added, “There is a significant difference between simply working and elevating work to new heights. Under his leadership, Indian cricket — particularly women’s cricket — has witnessed remarkable progress. This evolution is visible not just in numbers, but in the confidence and opportunities available to players.”
