About Mentorship from Cricket Legends
When legends like Suresh Raina or Piyush Chawla visit our academy, they are not here for show. They jump straight into the nets with our students to demonstrate shot selection, bowling angles, and how to stay focused when the pressure is high. It is the kind of practical, on-field correction you cannot get from a textbook or a video.
Seeing your heroes on TV is one thing, but standing on the same turf with them is a completely different experience. Our mentorship sessions are about bridging the gap between academy training and professional cricket. When Piyush Chawla works with our spinners, he talks about match variables—how the pitch changes, how to read a batter's stance, and why rhythm often matters more than raw speed.
Students get a direct look at the preparation behind an IPL or international innings. It shifts their mindset. They stop thinking about just hitting the ball and start thinking about reading the game. We make sure these sessions are interactive. It is not just about watching a pro; it is about getting your stance corrected by them and asking questions about their match-day routines. This level of access is what we believe helps our students move from just playing the sport to competing at state and national levels.
We don't do these sessions to add names to a brochure. We do it because hearing a specific technical tip from someone who has worn the national jersey changes everything for a young player. They see that the best in the game are also the hardest workers. That realization—that talent is just the starting point—is the most valuable lesson our students take home.
