The tournament trophy carries the name of the late Adv. Vijay Traymbak Tulpule, a criminal trial lawyer at the Bombay High Court for almost fifty years. He was Government Pleader and Public Prosecutor for Maharashtra from 1998 to 2000, and a Bombay Ranji Trophy probable before he enrolled as an advocate. From 1994 to 1999 he was President and Patron of advocates’ cricket, where he was known as Guruji. He passed away in Mumbai on 29 September 2017. The Bombay High Court held a Full Court Reference in his memory on 17 November 2017. 

BACA looks forward to welcoming advocates from across the country. Come, support the legal fraternity is the message for all.
