The message comes as Indian cricket begins building towards the next major milestones on the international calendar, with the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027 to be hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia, less than a year away.

From bilateral series to major ICC tournaments, the fan group has brought together Indian cricket supporters from around the world, creating an unmistakable presence in the stands and beyond.
Meanwhile, India head into the fourth ODI against New Zealand in Mount Maunganui with a 2-0 lead in the five-match series, following victories in the first two matches. The third ODI in Hamilton was abandoned due to rain, with the final two matches set to be played in Mount Maunganui. (ANI)
