Speaking about joining as brand ambassador, Yuvraj Singh, commented,

“I am thrilled to be a part of the third T20 World Cup Cricket for the Blind as the brand ambassador. I commend and appreciate the spirit of visually impaired cricketers for their passion for cricket and determination to fight everyday challenges. It is a different world, but it is a world of cricket. Cricket has no boundaries. 

‘And I believe this game taught me how to fight, how to fall, how to dust myself off to get up again and move forward. So I urge and invite everyone to support this great initiative.”

“Winning the World Cup in 2012 and 2017 was very special to us because it meant so much to so many. Our players who have been selected, have gone through rigorous schedules, discipline, hard work and I am sure the best 17 with the spirit of sportsmanship are geared up to win the World cup for the third time.”
