Founder's Note
“I started building BAILS because I have lived the struggle myself. As a professional cricketer, I managed to monetize my cricketing skills and complete my degree through a sports quota — but I saw so many talented cricketers forced to depend on random gigs on Rapido or Swiggy just to support themselves, while the game they love did not pay them back enough.
Why not flip it around and let cricket itself be the hustle? Whether you are a net bowler, sidearmer, coach, fitness trainer, analyst, scorer, umpire, or even a cricket photographer — your passion for the game should open doors, not close them. That is why BAILS exists.”
— Sathishraj S, Founder, BAILS
