“Thanks Mayur. Super to have taken and sent the photos. Also many thanks for the summary.Many thanks to Sandip committee and Shalini for organising. Venue good and high numbers. Food very good. Many speeches covering many aspects mostly of cricket. Good to see so many people with such passion even now. Keep it up! Mayur and Chapo brilliant sponsoring to make it happen! Others too. Sandip well done!!! Shalini was a rock! Maji was outstanding. A class MC. My table was super and Dhiru, CH, Durgi and Maji kept me occupied. With others whose names are washed in alcohol. Met many people and wow it’s been a while. Nasoor Tom T. Maji. Iqbal. Subash Modi….. many more. Many many people (incl in this group) were remembered and some revered. There were some photos put that would shock many of you (no idea how they were obtained !). All in all a good time. Honoured to have been invited and spent time. Special thanks to Mayur, Durgi, Dhiru and Singhe for ensuring I knew the importance of the event.
Cricket juu! To good health of all.“

– Kanti Rathod Chairman of Cricket Tanzania Legends.
The honour bestowed upon me is most appreciated. Coming now in the winter of my life you will never fully understand how much it has helped to uplift me by filling me with long forgotten memories. Having played the game as it was then without the pursuit of personal riches I stand raised with your honour deeming my playing journey as justified. I wish your body well in other future efforts to applaud former players swept away by time from public awareness. It will always remain a most noble gesture.

The function was very well organized and the attendance was awesome. Humbled by your team’s invitation and decoration.Could be an idea to think of what can be done by past cricketers in raising the standards of the game with the first & quickest action being organising some matches amongst various groups with the finals being wazees trying out in a match.
– Tom Tikolo former Kenya Cricket Captain.
Well done, team. This is a very good example of prudent planning, execution, and dedication to a course. This leadership is what our mainstream cricket administration lacking.
