A Royal Reception for Indian Cricket Facilitated by Manoj Badale 🏏
July 2025

On Tuesday, King Charles welcomed members of the Indian men’s and women’s cricket teams to Clarence House. The event was facilitated by Manoj Badale, Co-Founder of Blenheim Chalcot and Founding Chairperson of the British Asian Trust, in celebration of the close sporting and cultural ties between the UK and India.

The visit came just a day after the Indian men’s team faced a narrow 22-run defeat at Lord’s, placing them 2-1 down in their five-match Test series against England.

Meanwhile, the Indian women’s team, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, marked a historic milestone, securing their first-ever T20I series win in England with a 3-2 victory.

Players from both squads were introduced to His Majesty by Manoj Badale alongside BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia.
