New Delhi [India], June 20: In what is being hailed as a landmark moment in Indian sports broadcasting and inclusive athletic empowerment, Orient Tradelink Limited has officially secured the exclusive marketing, merchandising, and promotion rights for the first-ever Divyang Cricket World Cup, to be held from November 25 to December 3, 2025, across Noida, Greater Noida, and Delhi-NCR.
With cricket leagues booming across the globe, this initiative is set to redefine the sporting narrative in India--not through stardom, but through spirit, grit, and inclusivity.
The Tournament That Breaks Boundaries
Featuring 8 nations, this pioneering international para-cricket tournament will not only highlight elite cricketing skill but also champion differently-abled athletes who have long deserved the world's stage. With matches culminating in the final on World Disability Day (December 3), the World Cup is more than sport--it is a statement.
History in the Making: Every Match to be Telecast Live
In a bold first, Orient Tradelink Limited is bringing live telecast of every single match, marking a monumental leap in visibility for para-cricket. Talks are already in advanced stages with leading broadcasters and digital platforms, promising wide-reaching coverage and national attention.
"It's not just a broadcast--it's a revolution in how we view sports," says Supriya Saxena, Senior journalist and Project Manager. "Para cricket deserves the limelight, and this is the beginning of that long-overdue transformation."
Aum Sportainment Pvt. Ltd. & DCCBI Join Hands with Orient
In a major strategic alignment, Aum Sportainment Pvt. Ltd. and DCCBI have awarded Orient Tradelink Limited the commercial rights to the next three World Cups, giving the company a long-term runway to build this into a recurring global property. The rights cover live production, branding, merchandising, event execution, and promotions, ensuring a 360° engagement with fans, sponsors, and media alike.
From Entertainment to Empowerment: Orient's Evolution in Motion
Having built its name in media, films, and wellness, Orient Tradelink is now scripting a new chapter--as a torchbearer for inclusive sports.
But here's the real question:
In a country obsessed with cricket, can we now make space for every cricketer--regardless of ability?
This isn't just about showcasing talent; it's about shifting mindsets. Orient is now more than a brand--it's a cause. A mission. A movement. One that doesn't wait for change but drives it.
What's Coming Next?
- Live telecast of all matches
- National press conference announcing full tournament roadmap
- Merchandising line featuring official jerseys, memorabilia, and collectibles
- Sponsor & CSR collaborations to build social capital through sport
- World-class medical and support facilities for all athletes
- Social media campaigns & influencer partnerships to rally public support
Towards a New Sporting Future
This World Cup is not just about cricket--it's about courage, commitment, and change. And Orient Tradelink Limited is proud to be at the frontlines of this movement, proving that sport is not just ability--it's belief.

Tier-2 and tier-3 non-metro cities attracting more jobs, talent in India: Report
Job market momentum and economic opportunity are growing in non-metro cities in India, according to a new report on Tuesday. The Cities on the Rise report, by professional network platform LinkedIn, identifies Visakhapatnam, Ranchi, Vijayawada, Nashik, and Raipur as the fastest-growing non-metro hubs where professional opportunities are accelerating. The report also highlights emerging tier-2 and tier-3 growth pockets – Rajkot, Agra, Madurai, Vadodara, and Jodhpur -- for professionals looking to relocate, tap into new industries, or grow their careers locally. It attributed the success of these emerging cities to central and state government's push for local development. 'Tier-2 and tier-3 cities are at the heart of India's economic transformation. The influx of GCC investments, the local MSME boom, and the government's vision of a Viksit Bharat are collectively turning smaller cities into serious career hubs,' said Nirajita Banerjee, LinkedIn Career Expert and India Senior Managing Editor. 'This means, for many Indians, meaningful career progress no longer demands moving to a big city. Because these 10 rising cities offer real opportunities across industries, functions, and roles -- right where they are,' Banerjee added. Further, the report emphasised the role of technology, pharmaceuticals, and finance companies in moving into tier-2 and tier-3 Indian cities and attracting talent. It noted that amidst the boom in data and AI, tech companies are setting up shop across tier-2 and tier-3 cities, fueling local talent activity. Even healthcare and pharma companies are creating opportunities in Vishakhapatnam and Vadodara; while several major banks are accelerating the growth of financial services in Raipur, Agra, and Jodhpur. Business development roles were identified as the top hiring drivers in six out of 10 Cities on the rise, including Nashik, Raipur, Rajkot, Agra, Vadodara, and Jodhpur. For professionals in Vishakhapatnam, Vijayawada, and Madurai, most job opportunities are emerging in the engineering function. Sales, operations, and education are other key functions where professionals in tier-2 and tier-3 cities can look for jobs.
