All countries have veterans cricket boards established and they are actively organising and promoting cricket for the veterans in their respective countries
These boards are independent of their main cricket boards but supported by them at different levels – For example, ECB doesn't provide structured finance support to English veteran's team but they allow them to use the ECB logo. South Africa veterans are fully supported by SA board. Australian veterans have their own veteran's cricket board.

Over 50s World Cup
In 2018 first ever Cricket world cup for 50+ was organised in Sydney Australia.
The organising committee invited all cricket playing nations and there were 8 teams who responded and participated
No response or participation from India
Similar efforts were made by the WC committee for 2020 WC in Cape town SA but they didn't get any response from India
This is mainly because we haven't got a structure in place for our veterans in India.
