The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) will create a ₹500 crore corpus for grassroots cricket over the next decade. The initiative is designed to support development at the local level using returns generated from the fund.

According to reports, the decision is taken at the MCA’s 87th Annual General Meeting (AGM) held at Wankhede Stadium on Friday. The plan focuses on channeling benefits to maidan clubs as well as schools and colleges. The available coverage does not specify the fundraising method, investment structure, or the detailed allocation schedule for how the interest from the corpus will be distributed among beneficiaries. Both outlets describe the initiative’s goal and timeline, while providing limited additional detail beyond the AGM and the target groups that would be supported.
