Start Early

Almost all great players have started their cricket careers at an early age, which gave them time to develop their skills and gain a better understanding of the game.

Join/ Part of a state cricket team

Participating in local district or upper-division matches can provide you with the opportunity to represent your state team. The state team competes in domestic tournaments such as Syed Mushtaq Ali, Vijay Hazare, Ranji Trophy, and more. Even if you don't get many chances to play for your state team after being selected, you can consider joining another state team.
