"We have already opened 60 centers in Indian cities and abroad, including the US, England, and Canada. The academy, being equipped with advanced technology, premier coaching facilities, and qualified coaches, is gradually spreading its wings across the globe."

Mihir told reporters here on Thursday

MSDCA, which carries the name of popular cricketer Dhoni, has targeted to open centers in tier-2 and 3 cities to provide world-standard sports coaching to students and youths.

"Academy is not just confined to cricket but covers badminton, archery, table tennis, and football. All operations of the academy are executed under the mentorship of Dhoni," he said.

JHS principal Manjeet Jain said Belagavi has ample sporting facilities and excellent talents. Despite having state-of-the-art facilities, expertise was missing due to which some talents used to shift to Bengaluru and other places. MSDCA will help all such talents.

"Best coaches of the country will train students during and after school hours."
