Apart from swinging the bat for a few impressive shots against the bowling of Cricket Ka Ticket co-winner Aditi Chouhan and Runner-Up Manasvi Katta, Ambassador Garcetti bowled to the young women to dive into the cricketing fever.
US Ambassador to India, Eric Garcetti, was in the pink city on Saturday where the Ambassador dropped by Rajasthan Royals' home stadium, the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, and participated in a game of gully cricket with budding women cricketers. Cricket vibes on point! Cheering loud for this fantastic game of “gully cricket” played by the participants of @RajasthanRoyals girls cup. More power to these girls for breaking barriers and smashing boundaries on the field. Happy to learn about the contribution @RoyalRajasthanF… pic.twitter.com/jiR6Y92ezr
On the occasion, Ambassador Garcetti was greeted by Rajasthan Royals' Chief Executive Officer, Jake Lush McCrum, who also introduced him to women beneficiaries from the franchise's social equity arm - the Royal Rajasthan Foundation, along with members of the official fan programme, Super Royals.
The Ambassador was seen interacting with the women beneficiaries and getting a better understanding of how the Foundation's initiatives around water conservation and the use of solar power in the Sambar block have positively impacted their lives.
