ICAE Cricket Carnival

A Journey of Unity & Cricket Since 2017

Introduction

The ICAE Cricket Carnival is one of Egypt’s most iconic and long-standing cricketing tournaments, uniting the community through the spirit of the game. Launched in 2017 by renowned Indian businessman Mr. Sanjay Khushlani (President of ICAE & Chairman of Embee Group), this tournament has become a cultural and sporting festival for cricket lovers across the region.

Our Journey: 2017 – Present

🏁 2017 – 2022

Organized by the ICAE Executive Committee, the first five editions laid the foundation of what would become an iconic cricketing tradition.

5 successful editions were held during this period.
2021 was skipped due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.
The event grew in participation, popularity, and professional standards each year, attracting clubs, corporates, and cricket lovers from across Egypt.

🏆 2023 – 2024

With the formation of the ICAE Sports Federation in 2023, the Carnival reached new heights of organization and execution:
The 6th Edition (2023) introduced digital scoring, player analytics, and wider media visibility.

The 7th Edition (2024) was the biggest so far, showcasing top-tier competition and setting the stage for the tournament’s future.

Organized By:

2017 – 2022: ICAE Executive Committee
2023 – Present: ICAE Sports Federation
(Focused on the growth of sports within Egypt's Indian community and beyond)
