The children welcomed the KKR team members with the song ‘We Shall Overcome’ and also presented a short dance. Paper flowers and cards made by the children, along with mementos, were presented to each member of the team as a token of appreciation.

Our endeavour has always been to give back to the city that has supported us always. It was indeed a pleasure to meet the children who display such great fighting spirit. The children inspired our players to have a never-say-die attitude

These kids are an inspiration for us. Hopefully they will get back to normal life someday.

The players spent time at the centre, engaging with the children and their parents, posing for photographs and signing autographs.
