The Story in Brief
The Maha Indoor Cricket Association (MICA) will hold the Junior State Championship and selection trials for the 2026-27 season at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Sports Complex in Jalgaon on 16 and 17 August 2026. The event features Under-13, Under-15 and Under-17 categories for both boys and girls.
Players selected at this championship will represent Maharashtra in the Indian Indoor Sports Foundation national championship. Those who excel there can make the Indian team for the Junior World Indoor Cricket Championship in South Africa from 26 September to 3 October 2026. District associations must submit entries by 10 August 2026.
The Indian Opinion
Indoor cricket remains a lesser-known cousin of the outdoor game, yet this structured pathway from district trials to a world championship deserves attention. The narrative that only major cities produce cricketers is being challenged by Jalgaon hosting this event. A real test will be how many of these selected players actually go on to represent India at the world stage in South Africa next year.
