str8bat – founded by Gagan Daga and Rahul Nagar – aids athletes in pursuit of perfection. str8bat’s IoT and Data Science based technology gives budding and professional cricketers access to real-time, actionable insights by recording, analyzing, and enhancing every aspect of the game and connecting them to the world’s best coaches. str8bat is backed by industry leaders and advised by a very credible Advisory Board that includes James Sutherland (Former CEO Cricket Australia and Current CEO Golf Australia), Greg Chappell (Cricket Legend), Scott Dinsdale (Former Accenture APAC MD and Techstars Mentor), Gilbert Rodrigues (Director, SiiX-AGT Medtech Pte Ltd), Rakesh Chhabra (Managing Partner AARC).

Gagan Daga, Co-Founder and CEO – str8bat, said “In recent times, technology has been incorporated into broadcasting in the sports industry. The fact that there hasn’t been a technological intervention which democratizes sports and improve players’ skills is a huge white space. We are creating a new category with str8bat. I am thrilled that str8bat is a product imagined, designed and developed in India, tested and endorsed by the world’s elite players and cricket bodies and is made for the globe. The sport of cricket is a religion in India, with thousands of aspirants aiming for the top. st8bat is a platform to offer these people ‘hope’ that they can be the best version of themselves and continue to play better. This is what excites me most.”
