CRICGLOBAL.COM is regarded as India’s leading cricket consultants that provide contractual and management service along with expert advice to many professional cricketers and clubs across the globe. With the demand for overseas talent in INDIA, UK, Europe, US & cricket developing countries, there is always need of quality cricketers & coaches. The ECB itself has indicated there are in the region of over 7,000 registered clubs within the UK, of which a high percentage of these will look to source overseas players each year. In India too, with the inception of IPL and ICL there is always demand for quality overseas talent.

Recently, Sunil Gavaskar (chairman of the BCCI's technical committee) expressed hope that the introduction of foreign players in Indian domestic cricket will make significant contribution to the application levels and attitudes of the teams across the country. On his advice the state associations are to include four 'guest players' [three from areas outside their jurisdiction and one foreign player] in their squad from the 2008-09 season onwards, up from the three previously permitted. However, the committee attached a rider that required the overseas player to have played at least ten Tests or 20 ODIs. Talks have already begun between the world's highest wicket taker Muttiah Muralitharan to play for Bengal and Baroda are eyeing on Dilhara Fernando.

A good overseas coach also does a huge difference to a clubs future generation and gives valuable tips to current players, pushing up the abilities & standards. (Please see available coaches). We can arrange qualified coach for Corporate teams on request and prior appointment.

But, do we need an overseas player?

CRICGLOBAL certainly thinks so. It strongly recommends for overseas players when used in the right capacity. According to CRICGLOBAL having an overseas player not only provides a figurehead within the club, takes pride in passing on his knowledge to anyone who needs a helping hand. Playing alongside and against superior overseas players not only raises local players standard, but it's a chance to go head on against the best from abroad. It was quite evident in recently concluded IPL tournament, the mere presence of Shane Warne with his professionalism & cricketing knowledge took the inaugural trophy away for the Rajasthan Royals from much stronger sides. It definitely provides an opportunity for club mates to learn from the success of the overseas players and opposition can appreciate how good it is to play against them. Without them the standard would be well below what it is today. Many disagree though, citing players who are so good the player scores all the runs and takes all the wickets every week meaning younger, local talent misses out. This clearly spotlights the significance of the right overseas player rather than the one who does best on the pitch.

A good overseas player is a blessing to a club while a bad one can ruin a season for you. How do we find the best ones?
