October 2026 | India | Limited Seats
The Kevin O’Brien Cricket Clinics bring one of international cricket’s most exciting players and coaches to India for a series of intensive short-format workshops designed for school, college, and emerging competitive cricketers.
Led by Kevin O’Brien, former Ireland international and current Assistant & Batting Coach of the Italy Men’s National Team (T20 World Cup 2026), these clinics offer young players a rare opportunity to learn directly from a cricketer who has competed at the highest levels of the sport across international tournaments, franchise leagues, and county cricket.
These sessions are designed to complement the strong cricket training culture already present in India by adding an international perspective on modern T20 cricket, match awareness, and high-performance preparation.
India produces some of the world’s finest cricketers.
These Clinics aim to complement that tradition by offering players a chance to learn directly from an international professional and understand how the game is evolving globally.
For many young cricketers, this experience provides not only technical learning but also insight into the mindset and preparation required to compete on the world stage.
