As India prepares for the ICC 2023 Men’s One Day International (ODI) Cricket World Cup, Mastercard hosted an unforgettable dinner recently that brought together the iconic Indian Cricket team of the 1983 World Cup along with the company’s esteemed partners. This exclusive event held at Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai was a priceless experience filled with nostalgia, camaraderie, and stories of leadership. 
 
Along with Kapil Dev, the event was attended by legendary cricketers including Ravi Shastri, Sunil Gavasakar, Kirti Azad, Roger Binny, Syed Kirmani, Madan Lal, Sandeep Patil, Balvinder Singh Sandhu, Krishnamachari Srikkanth, Sunil Valson, Dilip Vengsarkar, P R Man Singh, and Renu Sharma, wife of late Yashpal Sharma.
 
The evening brought alive the precious memories from the game and that moment, when, 40 years ago, the annals of cricketing history changed forever, as a team of underdogs, fought against incredible odds to secure the country’s first ever world cup victory. In addition to a walk down memory lane, the cricketing maestros shared thoughts and perspectives around what it takes to build and embody a leadership mindset.
 
The event reiterated Mastercard’s dedication towards the sport in India, building on the company’s long-standing collaboration with Mahendra Singh Dhoni as its brand ambassador and the global partnership with ICC for the Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 hosted in India.
 
Talking about Mastercard’s commitment towards cricket, Gautam Aggarwal, Division President, South Asia, Mastercard, said, “The 1983 World Cup was a defining moment in Indian sports history, and as the proud sponsor of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, Mastercard is honoured to celebrate it with those who made cricket the most watched sport in India. Mastercard is always looking at curating unique experiences for its partners. The company views this as an opportunity to enable its consumers to create ‘priceless’ moments on their home turf.”
