✨ Unearthing a piece of forgotten cricket history! 🏏 ✨
Hamein hal hi mein ek bahut hi dilchasp memorabilia mila hai – ek plaque jo ek aise cricket match ki gavaahi deta hai jo 1995 mein USA ki dharti par khela gaya tha.
This is the Dr. J. Jayalalitha Trophy, awarded during the World Cricket League match between SGI India Under-19 Team and New York Tiger Team in New York, USA, on June 13, 1995.
Socho, 30 saal pehle, New York mein ek match jo Tamil Nadu ki ek mukhya-mantri ke naam par tha, aur ise organize kiya tha World Federation of Tamil Youth Inc. ne.
What's even more fascinating is that this plaque was professionally engraved in Illinois (Forest Park, IL), as seen on the back. It shows the effort and scale of this tour in a pre-digital era. 🤯
SGI India ki Under-19 team mein aksar aise khiladi hote the jo aage chalkar domestic cricket mein bada naam kamate the. I wonder who was playing in that specific team... 🤔
Can you imagine playing cricket in NY back in '95? This is a truly rare historical record of early USA cricket and the global Indian youth connection. 🌎
