Pranab Roy and Runa Basu receive Kartik Bose Lifetime Achievement Award at CAB annual awards in Kolkata.
International cricketers Pranab Roy and Runa Basu were awarded the Kartik Bose Lifetime Achievement Award at the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) annual awards function in Kolkata.
Roy, a right-handed batsman, played 72 first-class matches, including two Tests, and gathered 4056 runs. He also captained Bengal in domestic cricket.
“This is a special moment to get an award in the name of my coach,” said Roy.
Runa, who played five Tests and six ODIs, thanked the CAB for promoting the game. “We took guidance from Kartik (Bose) da. We played when women’s cricket was not recognised well. I am happy that CAB is doing so much for Bengal cricket,” said Runa.
