Lawyer and former Bigg Boss 17 contestant Sana Raees Khan has expanded her professional portfolio by stepping into the world of cricket as an owner of the Mumbai Marines franchise. A lifelong cricket enthusiast, Sana has moved beyond fandom to take on a business role in the sport, now entering her second season with the team. Alongside her thriving legal practice, she has ventured into sports management, balancing courtroom responsibilities with growing involvement in cricket.
Successful Debut Season
The Mumbai Marines made a strong impression in their inaugural campaign, clinching the league title. As Season 2 begins, the franchise aims to build on that success and deliver another standout performance. The team is led by former New Zealand cricketer Ross Taylor, whose international experience brings valuable leadership and strategic depth to the squad. His presence has bolstered the team's preparations for the new season.
Sana's Passion for Cricket
Reflecting on her journey, Sana shared, "Cricket has always been close to my heart. Owning Mumbai Marines has given me the opportunity to contribute to a sport I have admired for years. This venture is much more than business; it's about supporting talent, building a strong team culture, and creating a platform for competitive cricket. Winning the first season was a proud moment for all of us, and we're looking forward to another exciting season."
Admiration for Ross Taylor
When asked about cricketers she admires, Sana said, "At the moment, Ross Taylor is certainly one of my favourite cricketers. Beyond his remarkable achievements on the field, what stands out is his professionalism, humility, leadership, and the respect he commands across the cricketing world."
Values Reflected in Cricket
For Sana, cricket mirrors many values that have guided her professional life. She added, "Cricket is more than just a sport for me; it represents teamwork, discipline, resilience, strategy, and the ability to perform under pressure. These are values I strongly relate to in my own professional journey as a lawyer and entrepreneur. Through the Mumbai Marines, cricket has also become a platform to bring people together, celebrate talent, and inspire the next generation of athletes."
