In Santa Clara, former world-class cricketer Bimal Jadeja trains teenagers at the California Cricket Academy, emphasizing proper technique. As these young players get ready to attend Major League Cricket matches, they benefit from Jadeja's expertise, which aims to prepare them for potential futures in international cricket. With 200,000 active players in the U.S. by 2024, cricket's popularity is surging, and Jadeja encourages his students to learn from the best as they dream of representing America on the global stage, analogous to the team's past triumph over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup.
While Jadeja hopes the boys have fun at the A's old stomping grounds, he also wants his players to learn a thing or two from the world-class cricketers who his students may one day face on the international stage.
The kids, who were just a few of the hundreds of players affiliated with one of the top cricket programs in the country, will attend this week's Major League Cricket matches at the Oakland Coliseum.
