Tehran: Iran’s national team coach has requested India to help the country’s cricket. Iran Under-19 team coach Asghar Ali Raisi came forward with the request that BCCI should help in building the country’s first cricket stadium in Chabahar. Asghar Ali Raisi also requested BCCI to come forward to train Iran’s national players. In 2018, Iran got ICC recognition for Twenty20. He has also played international matches against UAE, Kuwait and Qatar teams.
Seeing the help provided by India for the growth of Afghanistan cricket, Iran has now sought India’s help. BCCI had released a cricket stadium in India for Afghanistan players to practice. Iran plans to build a 4,000-seat stadium in Chabahar. But due to the sanctions imposed by the US, the construction work of the stadium has been stopped.
“Iranian players have talent. But we are not able to train them because of lack of infrastructure. India should help us to build the stadium. BCCI should help in training the Iranian players and improve matters including umpiring. We are also hopeful that Iranian players will get a chance in IPL. M.S. The players in Iran are fans of Dhoni and Virat Kohli.”- Asghar Ali Raisi told news agency ANI.
