The 20-over match, played at Murray Barracks on Friday, July 24, was characterized by a spirit of friendship, teamwork, and sportsmanship.

While the Hanuabada community emerged victorious on the scoreboard, the event also served to bolster local cricket development. The initiative highlights the positive engagement between defense forces and the communities they interact with, fostering goodwill and mutual understanding through shared activities.
