Pace Foundation-CA partnership completes 25 years
“I made it to the foundation as a trainee in the first batch of this programme. Life has come full circle, where today I am still with the foundation, not as a trainee but as its director,” Glenn McGrath, director, MRF Pace Foundation said on Monday at a function to mark the 25th year of its tieup with Cricket Australia.

The partnership has benefited trainees from both Australia and India. The collaboration started in 1992 with Dennis Lillee as the director of MRF Pace Foundation. The arrangement has enabled trainees from Australia to visit the foundation every year and, similarly, trainees from MRF Pace Foundation get to visit the Australian Academy. As part of this exchange programme, when the Australian trainees visit the pace foundation, they get to play in different climatic conditions and learn to bowl on Indian pitches that are generally dry and with low bounce.
