I am indeed glad to learn that Raju’s Cricket Club is bringing out a souvenir on their successful completion of 15 years of service to the game of cricket. In the very early stages of the club, I, as the then President of the Jubilee Hills Education Society, played a small part in providing facilities to the club for conducting cricket coaching camps on the grounds of Jubilee Hills Public School which they are availing even now. Over these years the club has been able to introduce to the game many talented youngsters who have played as members of representative teams at different levels. The club has also successfully conducted a number of cricket tours outside India with teams of youngsters coached by it. It is creditable that the youngsters showed their mettle in these tours and won acclaim.

I congratulate the organizers of the club, particularly Sri G. Sudershan Raju, their Honorary Secretary who with his deep sense of commitment and dedication has been the motivating spirit behind their activity. I am confident that the club will progress in future from success to success and scale new heights of achievements. I wish them well and God bless them.
