Overview

Introduction

MPCL is a cricket league management platform built to replace spreadsheet-led operations with a single, synced system. From player registration and manual verification to club onboarding, umpire approvals, and full league administration—everything runs through one console at mpcl.ai instead of Excel files, messaging threads, and disconnected follow-ups.

The problem

Challenges

Player registration lived in Excel sheets with no shared validation rules or audit trail
Manual verification of players, clubs, and umpires meant long approval cycles and repeated follow-ups
Club records, rosters, and documents were updated in isolation—never fully in sync
Umpire availability, assignments, and confirmations spread across calls and chat groups
League fixtures, standings, and season data were maintained manually across multiple files
Updates posted in WhatsApp and other channels did not reflect back into official records
League admins lost days reconciling who was approved, who was pending, and what was outdated

Our approach

Solution

We partnered with MPCL to digitize the full league lifecycle: online player registration with structured verification, club and umpire management with role-based approvals, and league administration for seasons, fixtures, and match operations—all connected on mpcl.ai so admins, clubs, players, and officials work from one source of truth.
