Indian Deaf Cricket Team Coach, Dev Dutt said, "Indian team has come into the T20 World Cup game with a strategy and perseverance. We had started the T20 World Cup from India and the training camp was organised. In this, along with the sport, the performance of the players, fitness and wellness was also taken care of. In the first match to be held between Bangladesh and India, India was awarded two points due to the absence of Bangladesh. But the match between India and South Africa after that was very one-sided in which our bowlers performed very well and restricted South Africa to below 140."

In this match, bowlers, batsmen and fielding players performed amazingly well. The match between India and Sri Lanka yesterday was very exciting. There was a brilliant performance by the bowlers who restricted Sri Lanka to a low score." India Become Number One Ranked Test Team in ICC Rankings Following 4-1 Series Win Over England.

"But due to the lack of coordination of the batsmen, this match got a bit stuck in the middle but our team captain Virendra Singh played a captain innings and took the match to the end and in the match against Pakistan to be held today, we hope we can do the same. We will implement our complete strategy for this match and we have full hope in our team that we will win this match too. Best wishes to team India, play to win, bring glory to India."
