Last year, more than six CAP Patna players were selected to play for the Bihar state side in the Cooch Behar Trophy and the C K Nayudu Trophy “Pathan remarked.

He noted that seven members of CAP Jaipur’s district squad competed in Rajasthan. The academy is “planning travels of various countries for imparting match exposure to the young blooms under different environments,” according to CAP Managing Director Harmeet Vasdev, who was also present during the event.

“We intend to hold an all-India CAP tournament in which all CAP centres will compete. Nutrition, psychology, and the kids’ total physical development are important priorities at the academy “He expressed himself.

“The Cricket Academy of Pathans Lucknow Center was founded on the simple principle of ‘giving back,’ and it is poised to revolutionise cricket instruction and growth in India.

” The Pathan brothers, who have made a significant contribution to Indian cricket over the years, now want to eliminate the one big stumbling block in the way of producing excellent cricketers in India: a lack of adequate coaching.
