“I was surprised when it was declared that N. Srinivasan will represent the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in an International Cricket Council (ICC) Board Meeting in Barbados held from  June 24 to June 26  this year. I asked myself, how a person barred from becoming BCCI President was eligible to represent BCCI in an ICC meeting ? It was earlier in the month of March when Jagmohan Dalmiya was elected as the BCCI president that too after a gap of 10 years and ideally should have represented the BCCI at the ICC Board Meeting in Barbados. Later, it came to light that Kolkata-based Chief of Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) Jagmohan Dalmiya was having some health issues. His deteriorating health could be seen during a prize distribution ceremony held post an IPL-8 match in Mumbai when he struggled to stand on his feet for the entire time. Also, Dalmiya executed his Marwari skills at the world stage with his amazing business sense and promoted the spor...

My Extraordinary Experience [The Delhi Tour]                              OH MY GOD!!!! My happiness knew no bounds after hearing the brilliant news. I was selected for the Delhi one day camp organized by Cricket India Academy [CIA]. This was not an ordinary camp. It was a camp with the Australian Cricket players currently playing for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in India. This was a golden opportunity and I was surely not going to miss out on this. I grabbed this opportunity. I convinced my parents quite easily. There were ten children going to Delhi from Mumbai. I felt good to be one of them. I could not wait for this golden day to arrive.                Finally the day arrived [19th March].At the Airport I could see a wide smile on each and everyone's face which was an indication that all were filled with happiness and joy. I, myself being excited, could no...

Inter House Cricket Tournament Cricket is my FAVORITE GAME! I just enjoy playing cricket! Be it a foil ball cricket during recess, weekend coaching, evening cricket in society compound or home cricket with the younger brother, I simply love it! Just a week back i.e. on 28 th & 29 th January, we had Inter -House Cricket Tournament organized by Cricket India Academy where I loved playing this game. Such a fun was it! Wait let me tell you all about this! When we heard that Cricket India Academy is going to organize Inter-House Cricket Tournament in our school we all were very excited. Soon the day came when we all were taken to the ground for selection. Based on our bating, bowling and fielding skills the team was going to be selected. Our house captain and the vice captain selected the team. We had butterflies in our stomach when they were announcing the team. And, I was also one of the selected eleven! Woho!  We spent lot of time in strategy planning and selecting nam...

Day 2 : 19th August, 2012 Steppie Blasters v/s Singham Boys, 19th August, 2012 - Juniors The start of the tournament was very exciting and to top the excitement, we won. When the opposite side won the toss, they elected to bat.Then we gave so many extra runs, which made  us a little worried. They put up a score of 137 and it had us on the back foot and the pressure was on me when I went in to open from my side. But when they started to bowl equally badly and gave as many extra’s we had our win in sight very easily. The opening partnership was very good and our scores of 17 (Krish Sharma) and 16 (Abhinav Jain) made it all the more easy. And Krish Golchcha wrapped up the match with a boundary and the victory was ours to cherish. This has given our team the desired boost and we hope to win more matches.

Post: 2 Commencement of Business Development Work……… We are done with the summer camp tournament the last event of the Season, now its time to switch the focus on to Business Development, it is a new field, I will be working in to. Before Summer Camp Tournament I had done some research work related to Cricket, but now I had to devote my maximum time to business development as I was supposed to start off with its project as well.  In the entire span of Internship I did a lot of researches on different sports academies & Schools in different cities. The purpose of the research was always to understand the current scenario of cricket in that particular city. In the initial days all the research was internet based but as the days went by, the research level started going in depth. While doing this research, I was collecting information such as background of academy, programs offered, fees structure, coaches, location etc. So in the whole process I learned which points sho...

Post 1 Hi Friends,           I am Naresh Vijay Patil, a 24 years old sporty person pursuing MBA in Sports Business Management from Padmashree Dr. D.Y.Patil Department of Business Management in CBD Belapur.           I still remember I was preparing for my 2 nd semester exams & I received a call from placement coordinator of my college regarding an interview which was scheduled on April 20, 2012 at 2:30pm with Cricket India Academy’s office located in Dadar.
