The stage is set at ITI Shahpur Ground for tomorrow’s much-anticipated clash between Guru XI and Dharamshala Press XI in the Dhauladhar Cricket League 2.0. But this isn’t just another cricket match—it’s a campaign for a healthier, drug-free future.
Organisers have announced that the league will dedicate this edition to raising awareness against drug abuse, especially among youth. With banners, awareness drives and motivational talks planned alongside the match, the event aims to show how sports can be a powerful alternative to harmful addictions.
Community leaders and campaigners will be present to encourage young spectators to embrace fitness, discipline, and teamwork instead of falling prey to drugs. “Cricket teaches resilience and unity—qualities that can help our youth resist negative influences,” said one organiser.
Both teams have pledged their support to the cause, promising to play not just for victory but for spreading a message of hope. The match is expected to draw a large crowd, turning the ITI Shahpur Ground into a hub of both sporting excitement and social responsibility.
The Dhauladhar Cricket League 2.0 thus promises to be more than a contest of runs and wickets—it will be a rallying call for a drug-free Himachal.
