Sandhu is one of country’s first coaches to procure a Level 3 coaching certification and has been working closely with players from some of the country’s top first-class teams like Mumbai, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Baroda, among others. With his coaching experience spanning two decades, Sandhu has contributed to the development of numerous first-class and India players and is now keen to unearth talent at the grassroot level.

Day 1 will have the elimination round, while Day 2 will have the second round and final selection. For details contact 8082376677 / 9664876677 / 9220215243.u00a0
