The Shrinathji Group of Institutions focuses on excellence in all things. When children are engaged and happy, more learning takes place; when their hearts are connected to a purpose, they feel more motivated; when they find life more meaningful, they take more interest in their studies. They are more curious and creative. When education is personalized, every child feels empowered.

Sports and games take their rightful place in the lives of students at the Jain International as well as The Jain World  School, whether they seek high-level competition or recreation. The benefits of physical activity for the young are manifold. Sports give an opportunity to develop their physical skills and to remain healthy and active, while experiencing the pleasure of achievement.

Mr. Kuldeep Yadav addressed the young gathering aspiring for Cricket as their career and talked about his own experiences as a cricketer. He started as a fast bowler when he first joined a cricket academy in Kanpur, but was asked by his coach Mr. Kapil Pandey to switch to something much rarer - left-arm wrist-spin. The change wasn't smooth - Kuldeep admitted that he had even tried once - but he soon realised bowling left-arm wrist-spin was the way forward for him. His inspiration are his coach and his father who always motivated him in all situations. He stressed upon the fact that his father knew his calibre which he himself was unaware of and inspired him to work on those lines. His bowling style is Slow left-arm Chinaman and he is a left hand batsman.

Beyond the 22 yards, the wides and the no-balls, the fours and the sixes, the ducks and the centuries, the win and the loss, lies the inevitable element of cricket – a wave of emotions.

Cricket is a thrill both to watch and to play the game and its importance outshine than any sporting event. The torch lit by the International Cricketer of India would allow many to reach at the sixes of their lives.
