About Us
It was back in mid 2011, when the thought of starting a cricket store came to our mind. Back in those days we did not have too many cricket exclusive stores.
Our founder Mr. Aniket who is an avid cricketer was in San Diego, California those days was finding it tough to get genuine good quality cricket equipment. He reached out to our co-founder Mr. Pranav who had just finished his bachelors in Mumbai. The idea was upheld and that's how Crickstore took birth.
We started from a modest 10 ft * 15 ft small shop in Kandivali (suburb of Mumbai) with a handful of brands like SS, BDM, Beat All Sports, Slazenger and GM.
Pranav ran the operations in Mumbai store. Simultaneously our website www.crickstore.com got ready and we started getting online orders from different parts of India and the USA. Our sole moto remained the same to provide the authentic and best quality cricket equipment to our customers.
As the years passed by we kept on adding more brands such as SG, Kookaburra, DSC, SF, Asics, Gray Nicolls, RNS under our wings. Pinaka Sportswear was started with the same purpose, to provide top quality cricket uniforms to teams across US and India.
Then came the year 2019 when we started a small physical store in Hyderabad. In December 2020 post covid, we moved to our current Gachibowli location. Meanwhile Mumbai store had moved to a bigger location with our team growing day by day. The cricketers across Hyderabad embraced us with both hands giving us plentiful joyous moments. It was only because of our loyal customers we could think of opening another store in LB Nagar area of Hyderabad in Early 2023.
Coming to the present day, crickstore continues to thrive both in our online as well as offline operations. We keep the best handpicked English willow cricket bats sourced directly from the factories in the North.
Being part of this ecosystem we feel its part of our job to educate customers about the cricket gears and we do that continuously through our social media channels by posting useful content day in day out. Our Instagram and YouTube channels are have been watched by millions across the globe in the past 13 years which gives us a huge encouragement to continue on our journey.
We are your 'Everything Cricket' in true sense. Visit us if you are around Mumbai or Hyderabad.
