A trials notice bearing the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) name has listed selection activity for Arunachal Pradesh cricket teams from October 27 to 31, 2026, at Delhi Public School Ground in Jollang, Itanagar. The notice says sessions will begin at 8:00 AM onwards and sets out dates for boys’ and men’s age-group teams as well as women’s Under-23 selection.
The notice also identifies a separate venue for bone tests and lists documents that boys in the Under-16 category may bring. As the schedule is reproduced from the supplied notice, players and families should confirm any changes with the relevant cricket authorities before travelling.
According to the notice, October 27 is set aside for bone tests for boys under 16 and girls under 15 age groups. Men’s Under-19 trials are listed for October 28. On October 29, the schedule lists men’s Under-19 and boys’ Under-16 categories.
The notice lists boys’ Under-16 and women’s Under-23 trials for October 30, followed by women’s Under-23 on October 31. Because some categories appear on more than one date, candidates should check the exact reporting requirements and whether separate batches or stages apply.

A note on the notice says boys in the Under-16 category may bring three documents: an original birth certificate, school certificates for the last three years, and an updated Aadhaar card. The wording says these documents “may be brought,” so families should confirm whether any are mandatory and whether additional paperwork is required.
The notice separates the bone-test location from the main ground, making it important for candidates who are scheduled for age verification to check where they must report. It does not specify individual reporting slots, medical instructions, fees or the process for communicating results.
Arunachal Pradesh’s domestic cricket administration has recently faced challenges around team participation. A Hindustan Times report published on October 14, 2026, said the BCCI had stepped in to arrange independent selection trials after Arunachal Pradesh forfeited its opening Ranji Trophy fixture against Nagaland amid a legal dispute involving two factions of the Arunachal Cricket Association.
The report said the board’s intervention was intended to help ensure the state could field teams in domestic competitions, with independent selectors appointed for men’s and women’s squads across age groups and at senior level. The newly circulated schedule reproduced in the notice focuses on several youth and women’s categories, but the image alone does not explain how these specific dates connect to the broader selection process.
For players and families, the practical priority is to verify the schedule, category eligibility and reporting instructions before attending. SportsLine.news will update this information if an official clarification or revised notice becomes available.
