Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association (MPCA) president and Madhya Pradesh Cricket League (MPL) founder Mahaaryaman Scindia held a press conference ahead of the MPL finals in Indore on Friday. On this occasion, he shared the direction of technology-based change in the cricket administration of the state and the country. He said that Madhya Pradesh cricket is headed for a big change and with the aim of making the cricket system more transparent, equitable and systematic, MPCA has partnered with EmergentAI to develop AI based technological solutions.
Under this partnership, a world-class AI system is being developed, which will make the operations, administration and decision-making process of Madhya Pradesh Cricket more effective. Mahaaryaman Scindia said that our objective is to establish a transparent and trustworthy system with the district and divisional units. With the use of AI, this process will become more fair and systematic. He informed that the finance module, player registration, verification and player record management of MPLMPCA will be made AI based.
He said that AI based data and performance analysis will bring more transparency for the players who have been raising concerns of bias in the selection process. The AI will recommend potential players based on their performance, while the final selection process will remain with the selectors. Apart from this, the process of grant distribution at the district and divisional level will also be digitalized and organized.

On this occasion, Mukund Jha, founder of EmergentAI, said that his company is working with the aim of taking technology to the common people. He said that now websites and apps can be created just by writing a prompt or by speaking in Hindi-English.
He told that his partnership with MPL has been going on for the last 6 months. Mahaaryaman Scindia’s objective was to develop an AI system that could become the operating system of the entire cricket ecosystem. Currently work is being done on finance and administrative modules and selection, grant and other processes are being digitalized.
What is emergent platform?
Mahaaryaman Scindia said that Emergent is a platform in which the need to depend on the traditional development process to create an app or website is reduced. He said that the ERP system that is being planned to be developed would have incurred huge cost in developing it through traditional model, whereas AI based solution is making the process faster and economical.
