Happy Teachers’ Day: An ode to our beloved coaches
From the fans, from the entire #OneFamily, for the legends who’ve stood behind the scenes but shaped the biggest stories – this one’s for our coaches and support staff! 🙌
Every trophy, every comeback, every record-breaking night at Wankhede or beyond, there’s always been a genius in the dugout, making sure our Blue and Gold squad shines brightest.
You’ve been more than just “coaches” – you are mentors, motivators, friends and sometimes even that strict teacher making the players do the tough homework (a.k.a extra practice sessions 😬).
Be it unearthing raw gems who went on to become superstars or guiding our experienced champions to keep pushing the limits, your fingerprints are on every single success story since Day 1.
The five IPL crowns, the two CLT20 triumphs and the two WPL trophies, including the debut glory – none of it would’ve been possible without the lessons, the strategies, the belief YOU instilled. 💪
All in all, you’re the invisible force that keeps our engine roaring. You’ve taught our Boys & Girls not just how to win, but how to fight, how to smile through pressure and how to always play dil se. 💙
So here’s a loud, stadium-sized THANK YOU to the Gurus! You’ve not just coached a team, you’ve built a FA𝕄𝕀LY. And for that, we’ll always be grateful. 🙏
