Magadi Cricket Academy

About

I know practice in the nets is good, but real cricket starts when you’re out there with the scoreboard ticking and pressure mounting. That’s where real character is built. At Magadi Cricket Academy, I push my players into those exact situations, because only hard work and self-belief make champions.

Pathway to Big Leagues

The real goal? Giving my players a proper professional pathway through match play. Some of our boys have already made it big - like Aditya Mani in the Maharaja Trophy and Pratyush G Shetty for the Karnataka Under-14 team. These wins come straight from the tough matches and youth league cricket exposure they've got here.

Where We Compete

I make sure my players get non-stop, high intensity match practice:

• KSCA leagues (U-12, U-14, U-19, 5th Division) - the real grind where performances get noticed.
• State-level cricket tournament exposure at places like Jwise Cricket Championship and Cricket Habba.
• Our own MCA Junior Premier League gives everyone a shot to show what they’ve got.

International junior cricket competition? Yes, we’ve done that too - like hosting the Sri Lankan U-15 team and learning from legends like Ajantha Mendis.

The Tour Life

Tours aren’t just travel - they’re pure cricket tournament tour experience. Hyderabad, Hubli, Hassan... each ground, new skills. My players learn to fight, adapt, and support each other, win or lose. That’s the stuff you can’t teach in a classroom.

Cricket, Bangalore Style

Honestly, watching my team is pure excitement. Every win feels massive, and like any Bangalore cricket fan, I’m always shouting: Ee Sala Cup Namdhe! (This time, the cup is ours!)
