Keerthy Suresh, the acclaimed actor, has been appointed as the goodwill ambassador for women’s cricket in Kerala, marking a significant collaboration with the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA). This initiative, a first for the KCA, underscores the growing support for women’s cricket in the region.
During the announcement event held in the state capital, Keerthy Suresh not only accepted the ambassadorial role but also took part in the launch of online ticket sales for the upcoming T20I between India and Australia on November 26th in Thiruvananthapuram.
Highlighting the significance of this partnership, a representative from the KCA stated, “Keerthy Suresh’s association brings a new level of enthusiasm and recognition to our women’s cricket team.”
As part of the festivities, the actor honored Minnu Mani, Kerala’s sole national team player, who played a pivotal role in India’s gold medal triumph at the Hangzhou Asian Games. Minnu, the first Kerala player to don the Indian colors, received a commendable cash award of Rs 5 lakh.
In a historic moment this July, Minnu Mani made history by representing Kerala in the Indian team during the T20I series against Bangladesh, adding another remarkable chapter to her cricketing journey.
