Mumbai, Maharashtra, 9th of February, 2026 : Cricket in India is not just a sport—it is a passion. Now, that very passion is moving towards a new professional horizon through tennis cricket. On February 8, 2026, the first Annual General Meeting and press conference of the Tennis Cricket Sports Federation of India (ITCSF), held in Thane, marked a defining moment for the future of tennis cricket in the country. More than just an organizational milestone, the event set a clear direction for the sport’s national growth.
On this historic occasion, Shiv Sena Member of Parliament Dr. Shrikant Shinde was unanimously appointed as the National President of ITCSF—a leader widely recognized for his youthful energy, visionary outlook, and strong commitment to professional sports development.
With a firm resolve to give tennis cricket a structured, professional, and nationwide identity on the lines of the IPL, Dr. Shinde emphasized that every talented player deserves a platform—and tennis cricket has the potential to become that platform. The presence of state presidents from across India and abroad, the unveiling of the ITCSF logo, and the formal distribution of appointment letters collectively sent a powerful message: tennis cricket is no longer just a recreational pastime, but a growing career pathway filled with opportunities and promise.
