    I would like to agree at Mr John Monteiros point to restrict entries to Christians only,so as to encourage and find new talent within the community,being a Hockey/Cricket enthusiast and a player myself have faced such situations before. Regards Naveen(Orlem).

    Need of the hour is to combine various communities and play.this will increase brotherly feelings.As there are people fighting around the world for silly religious reasons we need to comeout with more tournaments like these mixing all communities which is good for mankind & gods blessings.

    This seems to be more commercial cricket tournament than in the spirit of the Pamboorian Association. Entry should be restricted to Christians only though could be open for all Indians as it is very difficult to ascertain the origin of the players from Karnataka. Suggest to keep the Association spirit and entry to be restricted to Christians only. All the best. John M. Monteiro, Jebel Ali, UAE
