Startup Risers

Our club · Hyderabad · Est. 2024

Cricket brought us together.
Saturday made us a team.

What began as a group looking for a game has become the part of the week we all protect — a squad that competes hard, backs each other and keeps coming back.

How it started

One game
became a club.

Startup Risers began in January 2024 with a simple plan: get a good group of people onto a cricket ground every Saturday.

The matches kept coming. So did the players, the friendships, the standards and the stories after the final ball.

Today, Startup Risers is bigger than a playing eleven. It is a squad built on showing up, competing properly and making Saturday count.

The squad

Different lives.
Same colours.

Across the week, we come from very different worlds.

On Saturday, the titles disappear. We are batters, bowlers, fielders and teammates — all playing for Startup Risers.

Different personalities. Different strengths. One dressing room.

More than match day

The part that never
makes the scorecard.

The score matters.

So do the huddles, the selection debates, the dropped catches nobody is allowed to forget, and the chai after the final ball.

Those are the moments that turned a group of players into a club.

Our colours

The shirt
we show up for.

It is more than what we wear on Saturday. It carries the badge, the team and everyone who backs the Risers.

Built from within

Cricket fitness,
by our own squad.

We are fortunate to have fitness professionals, physios and doctors in the team.

They have turned their experience into practical home sessions and simple Indian food guidance for amateur cricketers who want to move better, recover well and stay ready to play.

We use it ourselves. We share it freely. You do not have to play for us.

Next Saturday,
we go again.

Another match. Another memory. Another chapter for Startup Risers.
