Earlier, speaking to senior sports journalist Vimal Kumar on his YouTube Channel, Benjamin said youngsters do not even have basic equipment to play with. He said, at least he can give them bats and that’s what he needs at the moment.
“Previously, we used to have a tournament in Sharjah where it used to be like a benefit game for players from different countries. I don’t want benefit. All I want is for somebody to say ‘here is some equipment’ – 10-15 bats, that is good enough for me. I don’t want 20000 US dollars. I just want some equipment so that I can give back to youngsters. That’s all I am asking,” Benjamin said.
