Our Tallawahs MVP to practice with Indian, and West Indies Teams !
Neel Patel (South Alabama) with Jeff Miller, Worldwide Sports Management and Jamaica Tallawahs CEO
This year our Tallawahs’ season MVP Neel Patel (South Alabama) will get to practice with the Indian and West Indies players, and bowl to them in the Nets when they come for their Aug 2 and 3rd matches in Florida ! A dream for any cricketer ! Watching Jasprit Bumrat bowling his yorkers up close, bowling to Virat Kohli and M.S. Dhoni – memories for a lifetime. Lloyd often talks about when he bowled to Imran Khan and Alvin Kallicharran when he was a boy. Neel has been outstanding on and off the field, and was our All Star Captain this past Jan in Texas.
Worldwide Sports Management is responsible for bringing International Cricket to the Broward County Stadium, a place dear to the hearts of American College Cricket members. This year India will be playing the West Indies on Aug 3 & 4.
As part of their mission, Worldwide Sports has been providing opportunities for American College Cricket members, our season MVP gets to train in Jamaica with the Jamaica Tallawahs and others get internships. Accordingly last year Neel Patel (South Alabama) got some Management insights into a large cricket event, whilst Hayat Khan (Drexel), now a Doctor, got to be a part of the Medical Team for the event.
As reported before, we’ll have the privilege of having an American College Cricket member attached to the Medical Team and the person selected is actually a former player, now a Doctor, Dr Varendra Jamwant. Thanks to Worldwide Sports Management and Jamaica Tallawahs owner Kris Persaud, and CEO Jeff Miller for these opportunities.
