4 The date was set at 14.04.2019, the venue was the hallowed Eden Gardens, the Mecca of Indian Cricket, the event a clash of titans, KKR vs CSK brought to you by Calcutta Round Table 4. At the end of the day the match was won by CSK but the real winners were 600 children who are not born as lucky as us. For the first time in their lives, they experienced the thrill of watching a cricket match live at the Eden Gardens. The temperature was soaring but it did not deter the enthusiasm of these kids who raised their voices, hurled the flags and assumed the role of warriors cheering for their team KKR. CRT4 organised the tickets of the match, logistics of these kids to and from the stadium, t shirts for each one, food and refreshments throughout the day and an opportunity to see their heroes live in action. The event was covered by 22 papers and online news channels, we were shown live on star sports brandishing the placards of " I support Round Table India" at least thrice, each t shirt and cap had the branding of RTI. Keeping in mind ‘IPL fellowship’ as the theme given by National Felcons, CRT4 called 50 Tablers to enjoy this experience with them making it a ‘Fellowship with a cause’ in the presence of NS Tr Akshay Dugar. The event covered Community Service, publicity and fellowship all in one and it shall be the endeavour of each one at CRT4 to increase the number of children and scale larger heights.
