History
Kohinoor
Cricket Club is an expanding cricket club based in Budapest Hungary. The
club was formed in 2007 namely Titanic C.C before taken over by and
sponsor Kohinoor Restaurant.
Kohinoor’s roots can be tracked back in 2007 when people like Naveed
(captain), Kennedy, Haroun inspired by the introduction of cricket in
Hungary, which was a dream come true. Hence, idea of creating Titanic
C.C was mooted, built on and gradually put foundation of one of the top
teams in the Hungarian cricket league the Kohinoor Cricket.Club.
Kohinoor (ex-Titanic) played important role in building cricket in
Hungary. It is our aim to play cricket on highest possible level.
Currently our team includes pace and bouncy bowlers like Suleiman, Habib,
Zaheer and Shiraz parallel to the best spinner in the Hungarian league,
Haroun Abel.
Our next aim is to expand our talent to local Hungarians and introduce
them as many as possible to the game.
