DIBRUGARH, June 25 - Dibrugarh could soon have a cricket institute under MS Dhoni Cricket Academy (MSDCA) to groom future cricketers from the region.
Disclosing this to the media, Munish Rao, the Business Head of the Academy who was here to launch the 7-day summer cricket coaching clinic in the city said that in all probability an academy could come up in Dibrugarh. �We are seeking to identify at least 100 locations for the MSDCA across the country in next two years. Dibrugarh is also in the list for one regular academy,� said Rao.
The MSDCA will hold the 7-day summer cricket coaching here in collaboration with the Cricket Club of Dibrugarh and Dibrugarh District Sports Association (DDSA) from July 8 to 14. Rao, who made the announcement during a press meet, said that the participating children will be undergoing specialised training under the guidance of accredited (Level 3) coaches from the BCCI. �
�The objective is to provide a platform to aspiring cricketers for quality training with a planned programme involving all modern technology including videography of trainees in action, high class coaching facility and certified coaches. The coaching is open to both boys and girls of about 8 to 19 years of age. We are expecting at least 100 children for the coaching. The academy is looking forward for annual summer camps in future. Eventually we can have a full fledged academy here for regular training,� said Rao.
