India mixed-disability cricket series vs England

Entities: Differently Abled Cricket Council of India · Majid Magre · England cricket team · India mixed disability cricket team · Majid Ah Magray

Overview

In late July 2026, the Differently Abled Cricket Council of India (DCCI) announced a 16‑member squad for a mixed‑disability IT20 series against England, scheduled for 5–19 August across venues in Derby, Leicester, Hove, Arundel and Lord’s. Majid Ah Magray of Jammu & Kashmir was named captain, with Sai Akash Saivamani as vice‑captain, and coaching staff led by former Ranji captain Rohit Jhalani.

A few days later, coverage highlighted Magray’s personal journey—long daily commutes and a five‑year wait for an India cap—while reaffirming his captaincy and the series itinerary, which concludes with a final match at Lord’s on 19 August. The reports underscore the growing profile of disability cricket in India and the inclusive format that brings together players with various physical and sensory impairments.
