Amongst the local cricket of Bangalore, corporate team of Redbus.in is making some name for themselves. One of the prime reasons for that is their  dynamic captain Uday. “During one of the internal tournaments at Redbus.in many of the unearthed players were discovered and we founded a team. In a short span of one year we have done really well and have played some good cricket. We play in both Tennis and Leather ball cricket. So we play during entire year, “said Uday.

“Playing in corporate tournaments and leading the team has been a wonderful experience. There are so many quality players in corporate cricket and tournaments have got very competitive nature. There is lots of transparency between organizers and participating teams. We have been participating in tournaments organized by IDPS Bangalore and NM events”

Uday who is an all rounder has been leading his team since beginning. “It’s been a pleasure  captaining bunch of 16-20 guys. Now cricket has become a routine for us. We practice 1-2 times a week. The management has been supportive, they provide us uniforms and all the other necessary things,” said Uday. There were few interesting matches which went down to wire. Uday shared his experience of those matches. “We were playing in Garden city college event. Opponent needed 9 runs in last over and we successfully defended that score and won the match. In IDPS tournament, we were runners up but that was a dramatic final. Our 4 players were injured because the entire tournament took place in just 2 days. Runners up. We scored 50 in 10 overs and we had opponent at 30 after 9 overs. But in last over we gave away couple of sixes and that turned the game around”

According to Uday, team of HP and HGS are the toughest to beat. He plays cricket all over Bangalore but the Koormanglas ground and HMT ground are his favorites. They travel to various different cities like Hydrabad, Mysore and Delhi for playing in tournaments. During past year they have been out of the city for about 7 to 8 times for playing cricket. Uday thinks that the main reason of success for his team is the quality of their players. “We have some quality all rounders, five extremely good bowlers and we bat deep. In fact all the 11 players from our team can bat. The team has good combination of some big hitters and classical players. As a captain it is always handy to have such a balanced unit,”said Uday. The achievement of this team is quite redoubtable. They have reached the finals on as many as 12 occasions. Out of which they won 7 tournaments. “Yes we have performed really well and because of that now a wide range of opportunities are coming our way. Initially we got a good support from organizers like IDPS, One World of Sports etc. They have been the organizers. We also got good support from cricketgraph.com. We did find lots of tournaments from the cricketgraph website. Cricketgraph has indeed played an important role in our success” said Uday.

Now his team is looking to keep the same quality in their performance and they looking to go a level up. “We can have something like IPL or Champions League at local level. Wherein the winners and runners up from different cities will compete against each other. That will be a good platform to showcase the talent. Because of our success in cricket now the company has formed teams for different sports like table Tennis, Football, Chess etc.Till now we got the right people in every aspect. The players, the management, the resources of finding different tournaments and what not. Now we are really looking forward to make some name for ourselves and for our company too, “said Uday. With their strong desire and their dynamic captain, this team has a potential to become one of the best in the business.
