The Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) had instituted a one-time payment of INR 5 lakh to cricketers, groundsmen, officials and others from the cricketing fraternity to recognize their contribution towards the growth of the game. The decision made by CSK is in support of TNCA’s effort.
CSK disclosed their intention to recognize veterans of the game from the 1950s and 1960s who did not get much monetary benefit in that era.
The beneficiaries of the initiative are Shri K R Rajagopal, Shri Najam Hussain, Shri S V S Mani, Shri R Prabhakar and Shri K Parthasarathy.
The first four have represented either Madras or Tamil Nadu in the Ranji Trophy and Shri K Parthasarathy was a curator at MA Chidambaram Stadium for 40 years.
The amount INR 7 lakh is synonymous with CSK skipper MS Dhoni’s jersey number
CSK management revealed that the contribution of INR 7 lakh to be made to the veteran cricketers is synonymous with their “much-loved captain.”
Skipper MS Dhoni has always worn the number ‘7’ for both his franchise as well as for the national side. He has captained CSK right from its inception and has a special relationship with the team, management and the fans.
The benefits will be distributed to former players at a function organized in Chennai today.
