Anaya Bangar requested ICC, BCCI to include transgender athletes: I am eligible for women’s cricket, post viral.

Delhi: Anaya Bangar, the daughter of former Indian cricketer Sanjay Bangar, has appealed to the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to recognize and support transgender cricketers. At present, transgender players are not allowed to participate in women’s cricket. The ban was implemented in a board meeting of ICC after the 2023 ODI World Cup.

Anaya has made public a scientific report of an eight -page, in which she has explained in detail the process of her change as a trans woman athlete. She is planning to submit this report to ICC and BCCI soon.

Anaya said, “I am handing over this report to ICC and BCCI with all expectations. My purpose is not to give rise to any debate, but to start a dialogue that is not on fear, but based on facts and science.”

He added, “This is not an opinion or imagination, it is a fact. Science says that I am eligible to play women’s cricket. Now the question is – is the world ready to accept the truth?”

23 -year -old Anaya, who was a man from birth, is now a trans woman. He recently shared his Test report through a video on Instagram, which has intensified the discussion in the cricket world.

Anaya’s father Sanjay Bagar has played 12 Tests and 15 ODIs for India. He has also been the batting coach of the Indian cricket team from 2014 to 2019.
