CricMax, Old Bridge, New Jersey

CricMax is exactly the kind of operator KRCA was built for: strong local roots, real cricket infrastructure, and a genuine ambition to give young players a clearer path forward. As one of our founding licensees, they’re showing what the model looks like in practice

And they’re proof it works. The players who’ve come through the CricMax nets haven’t stopped at the local league. They’ve gone all the way to the national side.

The Proof

 
  • Saiteja Mukkamalla: Batting for Team USA at eighteen, an unbeaten 120 against the UAE at the 2023 World Cup Qualifier, and a Major League Cricket deal with the Texas Super Kings since the league’s very first season.
  • Yasir Mohammad: A USA international leg-spinner across T20Is and ODIs, now bowling for the Washington Freedom in Major League Cricket.
  •  
  • A U19 cohort carrying the name onto the world stage : 
  • Prannav Chettipalayam (MVP of the 2023 ICC Americas U19 Qualifier), Amrinder Singh Gill and Adit Kappa (USA’s 2026 U19 World Cup squad), and Siddharth Kappa (2024 U19 World Cup).
  •  
  • Integrity: We lead with honesty, transparency, and a commitment to doing what’s right for players and academy partners.
 

For years, cricket in America has had no shortage of talent or enthusiasm, only a shortage of structure. Families want better coaching, players want clearer opportunities, and academy owners need stronger systems to grow. KRCA was created to bring those pieces together through the Knight Riders brand, with proven coaching frameworks, technology support, and a connected pathway that helps local academies become part of something bigger.

"Joining the Knight Riders ecosystem gave our academy a stronger identity, better parent confidence, and a clearer story for ambitious players." - CricMax, Old Bridge, New Jersey
