While cricketers are always in the limelight, there are many who set the stage for them behind the scenes.
In a bid to acknowledge cricket’s unsung heroes, a popular confectionery brand has offered the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) Rs 50 lakh a year to build a corpus for the groundsmen and electricians employed by the association. The groundsmen and electricians will feature in an advertisement filmed at the Wankhede Stadium.
