Dubai: The third edition of Maxtalent Global Sports (MGS)-organised MGS-MCCC Challenge Cup in Muscat, which took place in the last week of March, proved a big success. The last edition saw Team Maxtalent Global Sports’ Boys Under-11 and Under-13 categories both being crowned champions.
UAE were represented by a contingent of 42 players and eight officials from Maxtalent Global Sports in Muscat against local teams such as Indian High School Muscat, Muscat Cricket Coaching Centre (Darsait), Indian High School, Al Wadi Al Kabir, Muscat Cricket Coaching Centre, Bosch Olympic Centre at the popular Amerat cricket grounds.
The annual Muscat tour is conducted under the aegis of Oman Cricket Council and in partnership with Muscat Cricket Coaching Centre in an effort to provide match practice and give a platform to budding cricketers in the Gulf region to develop through playing competitive matches against each other.
Sudhakar Shetty, Managing Director of Maxtalent Global Sports said: “Maxtalent Global Sports provides the opportunity to UAE-based cricketers by organising regular annual tours to UK, South Africa, India, but the tour to Muscat is a project much closer to the heart as it’s our responsibility too to develop cricket in the Gulf region.”
