No jargon, no fluff. The actual scope of the role and the kinds of work that fall under it.

The cricket-tech industry, mapped

Who's building what - franchise analytics teams, broadcasters, fan platforms, scouting tools. Names, not categories.

Profiles of India's top analysts

The people leading analysis at IPL franchises and national setups. How they got there. What's repeatable.

The "do I need a tech background?" answer

Honest take on the most common question. Which skills actually matter, which are overrated, and how non-tech folks break in.

A first-90-days plan, from scratch

Concrete steps. Free tools, free data, the first 3 portfolio projects to build, and how to get noticed by the right people.

Workshop completion certificate

Modules

Workshop modules unlocked for every participant

In addition to the 2-day live sessions, paid participants get instant access to these 5 self-paced modules in the LMS - built around the calculations and case studies analysts use every day.

VIDEO MODULE 01

NRR (Net Run Rate) Calculation

The exact NRR formula, how it changes T20 vs ODI vs Test, and how a single misread over can flip a team's qualification.

VIDEO MODULE 02

DLS / Duckworth-Lewis-Stern

How DLS revises targets in rain-affected matches. The resource percentage table, the math, and how to recompute by hand.

VIDEO MODULE 03

Case Study 01

A real match analysed end-to-end - tagging, reports, the call the coach made off the data, the result.

VIDEO MODULE 04

Case Study 02

Another full match dissection - different format, different challenge, same workflow you'd use on Day 1 of a job.

RESOURCE MODULE 05

Ball-by-ball IPL datasets

A curated dataset library - ball-by-ball CSVs, scorecards, match-level tables. The raw material for the assignments and your portfolio projects.

Who this workshop is for

Built for people who want to enter cricket analytics seriously - not casually curious.

01

Aspiring analysts at the start of their career

Final-year sports-science / data students, or fresh grads. You want a domestic-team intern role this year.

02

Coaches who want the analyst lens

Active coaches at school / academy / district level who want to handle their own video and pitch-side stats.

03

Career-switchers from data / tech

Software engineers, data analysts, or product folks who follow cricket seriously and want into the sport professionally.

04

Not the audience if

You're looking for a "five tips to be an analyst" video. This is structured, assumes you'll do the Intro Session assignment, and is built around real industry context, not generic advice.

Meet your instructors

A cricket-tech engineer and a working franchise analyst. The industry view plus the day-to-day reality, together in one workshop.

FAQ

Do I need any prior cricket-analyst experience? ▾

No. We start from zero - what an analyst does, the vocabulary, the workflow. You should follow cricket seriously, though, because all examples are real domestic-game data.

Is this hands-on with cricket analysis software? ▾

Partly. The core layer is orientation + industry-context + path-in - what cricket analysis is, the companies, the people, and how to kickstart your journey. In the Mega Webinar we also walk through some of the internal tools we've built at KhiladiPro - you'll get to try a few of them - and we'll point you to the specific software you should explore on your own (free and paid). You don't need to buy anything before the workshop. Just bring the small Intro Session assignment, completed before the Mega Webinar.

Do I need a tech background? ▾

No. We answer this question directly in the Mega Webinar. Plenty of working analysts in India come from non-tech backgrounds. We'll cover what skills actually matter and how non-tech folks make the jump.

Is this only for people in India? ▾

No. The workshop is live on Zoom - anyone in any timezone with a stable connection is welcome. The industry and career-path examples are India-focused, but the framing is useful for anyone considering cricket analysis as a career.

What if I can't attend live? ▾

No recordings are shared - this workshop is fully live, and a big part of the value is the Q&A, the conversation, and discussing your starter assignment together. If a genuine emergency comes up, drop us a note and we'll move you to the next batch (one switch only).

Is there job placement support? ▾

Not formal placement - that's not honest to promise. But we do introductions for the strongest students into our network of state associations, IPL franchises, and analytics firms. Past learners have moved into domestic teams this way.

Refunds? ▾

Full refund up to 24 hours before the Intro Session starts. After that, your seat is locked - the workshop is live-only with no recordings, so plan to attend both sessions live. Refund policy.
