Dhaka Deaf Sports Association (DDSA) yesterday launched a 12-day deaf cricket training camp at the city's Dhanmondi Club ground to select Bangladesh's hearing and sound impaired cricketers for participating in the third Deaf Cricket World Cup to be held in New Zealand in December this year.
Newly elected Member of Parliament Barrister Fazle Noor Taposh inaugurated the camp. DDSA, in association with the Bangladesh Cricket Board, is organising the workshop that concludes on January 16.
Sixty hearing and sound impaired cricketers from Dhaka and Chandpur, Chittagong, Barisal and Mymensingh are taking part in the camp. The team to take part in the Asian Deaf Cricket and Deaf Cricket World Cup in Pakistan this March will be picked from this camp.
