Sad news has struck the Mumbai Cricket Association as their president, Amol Kale, passed away due to a heart attack while on a trip to New York. According to sources within the organisation, Kale had traveled to the United States with other MCA officials to attend the ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
The unfortunate incident occurred after Kale watched the highly anticipated India versus Pakistan match at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. He was accompanied by MCA secretary Ajinkya Naik and Apex Council member Suraj Samat. Kale, who was a well-known businessman in the state, had taken over as MCA president in October 2022 and had been in the role for 19 months. He had a close relationship with former Maharashtra Chief Minister and current Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis.
Despite hailing from Nagpur, the headquarters of Vidarbha Cricket Association, Kale had been living in Mumbai for over a decade and had various business ventures. With a degree in Electrical Engineering from Nagpur University, he was the Founder and CEO of J K Solutions Private Limited and Arpita Enterprises.
During his time as MCA president, Kale made some significant contributions, including the decision to offer Mumbai cricketers the same match fee as the one provided by the BCCI. Under his guidance, MCA successfully organised several international matches at the iconic Wankhede Stadium, including the India vs New Zealand Test and the upcoming 2023 World Cup matches.
The MCA community is deeply saddened by the loss of their president and is still awaiting details from the office-bearers who were with Kale in New York. His sudden passing has left a void in the organisation, and he will be dearly missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
