The star attraction was 15-year-old Salwan boy, Surinder Dahiya, who really caught the attention of everybody for his phenomenal wicket keeping. Talking about the Chyavnprasha Cup, he said, "The Himalaya Chyavanprasha Cup really helped me better my game. I participated in the tournament last year and this year as well and I see a marked improvement in my performance. What is great about this series is that we get a lot of exposure because we compete with different schools from different cities. This is fantastic. I am now much better prepared to play the under 17 league!."
