On September 3, Abhay Hadap was chosen to serve as the Mumbai Cricket Association’s (MCA) new secretary. At its Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) location, MCA opened a new gym less than a day after the development. With its newly refurbished state-of-the-art equipment, the cricketers will be able to improve their physical conditioning.
Seven retractable nets with video cameras at the batter’s and bowler’s ends are installed in the stadium to provide a thorough skill analysis. In order to create artificial climate conditions, it also features a temperature and humidity regulated environment.
The updated gym will complement Mumbai Cricket Association brand-new, cutting-edge indoor stadium.
President Ajinkya Naik, newly elected Secretary Abhay Hadap, Joint Secretary Deepak Patil, Apex Council member Kaushik Godbole, CIC Chairman Raju Kulkarni, and Advisors Milind Rege and Diana Edulji were present for the gym’s opening.
