A strategic location for any activity wins half the battle for an organisation. The M. I. G. Cricket Club at Bandra (East) no doubt wins this battle easily, as it finds itself virtually at the centre of metropolitan Mumbai. But way back in the 1960s, Bandra (East) was a struggling suburb with hardly any facilities. Overcoming the difficulties of infrastructure and resources, the local sports enthusiasts started the 'M. I. G. Sports Club'. These enthusiastic founders had a vision of growth, and decided to accommodate the sportsmen from neighbouring colonies as well. Thus was born the M. I. G. Cricket Club in 1968. The guidelines for the Club's activities were provided by cricket lovers of M. I. G. Colony like Shri K. D. Potdar, Shri Raj Kaul, Shri V. M. Madge and Shri V. D. Suvarna, whose efforts, along with dedicated support from Shri P. N. Parsekar and other well-wishers, took the Club from strength to strength.
