    The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) is hosting consultation workshops with South Asian communities across the country, including an event at the Carlisle Business Centre on the 18th of July, to help improve its understanding and levels of engagement with South Asian cricket fans across the country.

    They want to hear from people from Afghani, Bangladeshi, Indian, Nepalese, Pakistani, or Sri Lankan communities.

    Whether you are involved in cricket or not; you could be a community leader, regular player, volunteer, coach, school teacher, an armchair fan or a parent of a cricket mad child – everyone is welcome to attend.

    As well as Bradford, the workshops will take place in seven other regional venues in Birmingham, Dewsbury, Manchester, East and West London, Leicester and Sheffield. They are designed to encourage local communities to share their thoughts, ideas and experiences on playing, attending or following the game.
