Talking to the scribes at the Cricket Association of Bengal, Sourav made it clear that he will be only participating in a 8-over a side cricket match which will also feature celebrities from other works of life including film stars from Tollywood on April 17. Vaishali Dalmiya, one of the star candidates of the ruling Trinamool Congress from Bally constituency is planning to have a huge campaign on April 17.  According to Vaishali, “The Bengal cricket team may be coming over to play. We may also invite a team from Tollywood to play against Dada’s team.” Vaishali, daughter of late BCCI & CAB president Jagmohan Dalmiya, was handpicked by the Chief Minister to contest the Assembly polls from Bally constituency on a Trinamool Congress ticket.
