“An excellent coach who connects with young players.”

Masud has been an excellent cricket coach for my daughter. He is knowledgeable, patient, and very encouraging, which has really helped build her confidence and skills. His coaching sessions are well structured, focus on fundamentals, and at the same time make the game enjoyable for the kids.

What stands out most is his ability to connect with young players, motivate them, and bring out the best in each child. My daughter has shown noticeable improvement in her technique, game awareness, and overall enthusiasm for cricket. I highly recommend Masud to any parent looking for a dedicated, professional, and inspiring cricket coach for batting, bowling, confidence building, and match play.

“She’s now playing straight drives with confidence.”

Aarya, my daughter, has been playing hardball cricket for almost three years now, and I really wanted her to focus on playing cover drives and straight drives. As she is a right-handed batter who loves to play on the leg side, this switch required expert guidance. Coach Masud understood her biomechanics and adjusted her alignment in a way no one else could.

His approach focuses on understanding the human learning process along with individual biomechanics. Bowling, batting, fielding, and wicketkeeping all need to be properly aligned with body movement—head, hands, elbow, wrist, legs, and toes. Once he figured out how the alignment worked for her, she did the rest. The transformation has been incredible.

“Outstanding development in just six months.”

My son, Rayan, has been training under Canberra Cricket Academy for about six months. His development in batting and bowling skills is simply outstanding. He is also enjoying Masud’s coaching and guidance thoroughly. We are expecting to develop him as a high-performance player within the next year.

The structured approach and personalised attention have made a huge difference in his confidence and technical ability. Rayan looks forward to every session, and as a parent, I feel reassured knowing he is learning from someone who genuinely cares about his long-term growth in cricket.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #4 – Foisol S.

“Worth travelling from Sydney.”

Masud from Canberra Cricket Academy is one of the best cricket coaches I know, and I’ve been to many. I travelled all the way from Sydney to Canberra with my two kids for his assistance, and it was totally worth it. Masud assesses each player individually and gives them exactly what they need to improve.

His coaching goes beyond just technique—he focuses on building the right mindset, discipline, and love for the game. If you are serious about cricket development, CCA is the place to be, even if it means travelling from interstate.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #5 – Rugveda L.

“My technique has improved dramatically.”

I have been training at CCA for over two months now under coach Masud. His coaching has really helped me improve my batting and bowling techniques. Coaching is about unlocking a person’s potential to maximise their growth, and Coach Masud has mastered that art.

He takes the time to explain the mechanics behind every shot and delivery, ensuring that I not only know how to execute but also understand why it works. My confidence at the crease has grown significantly since joining CCA.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #6 – Pathmanathan R.

“A champion for girls’ cricket.”

Canberra Cricket Academy promotes excellent effort and passion towards girls’ cricket in Canberra. My daughter Thuhi goes to CCA and has been training here for the past four years. She represented ACT at the National Junior Indoor Championship in 2019 in Melbourne.

The dedication and encouragement she has received from Masud have been instrumental in her development. For any parent looking to support their daughter’s cricket journey, CCA provides a welcoming, professional, and high-quality environment.

“Among the top academies in Canberra.”

Canberra Cricket Academy is amongst the top cricket academies in Canberra under the able leadership of Masud. Masud is a very experienced and dedicated coach who instils the spirit of competition, sportsmanship, and passion for cricket in every player.

His ability to connect with players of all ages and skill levels sets him apart. The academy provides a structured yet flexible training environment that allows each player to grow at their own pace while being challenged to reach their full potential.

“The school that shaped my cricket career.”

Canberra Cricket Academy, popularly known here in Canberra as CCA, is my school for cricket. I joined CCA when I was 11, and under the guidance and mentorship of Dr. Masud, I made great strides in my cricket career. Since starting, I have developed the skills and confidence needed to compete at higher levels.

Masud’s mentorship goes beyond cricket—he teaches discipline, resilience, and the importance of hard work. I owe much of my development as a player to the foundation I built at CCA.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #9 – Neeti A. C.

“He reignited our daughters’ growth.”

My daughters have been playing cricket for over a year. We had started feeling that their growth had become stagnant and they weren’t going much further. We are grateful that Masud took them as his students.

His coaching philosophy is built on a collaborative approach among players, parents, and the coach. That principle has worked wonders for them. They are now developing their skills quickly and, more importantly, enjoying the game again with renewed enthusiasm.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #10 – M. B.

“A passionate coach—results from day one.”

Masud from Canberra Cricket Academy is a very passionate coach. My son has just started getting coaching from him. Just after the first session, his batting and bowling started to improve by a lot. The way he should hold the bat, the body positioning, and the follow-through—all were addressed with precision.

It’s rare to see such immediate results. Masud’s passion for coaching is evident in every session, and my son looks forward to training each week. I highly recommend him for any young cricketer looking to build a solid foundation.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #11 – Tooba S.

Masud is the best coach I have ever seen. He is really hardworking, and I have learned many things from him in cricket. He pays attention to all players and always spends his time teaching how to play cricket and how we can be good at the game.

His dedication to each player’s development is unmatched. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced player, he meets you where you are and helps you take the next step forward.

Excellent coach. Provides precise technical feedback and instruction. Empowers parents by providing them with practice drills they can use at home. I really like Masud’s honest and genuine approach to coaching. He seems invested in the long-term development of each player.

The combination of technical expertise and genuine care for his students makes him stand out. My son has benefited greatly from his structured yet encouraging style.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #13 – Arsam M.

“Hardworking and skilful.”

Mr. Masud is so hardworking and skillful. He always teaches his students key skills to help them succeed. He inspires his students and develops their skills, behaviour, and sportsmanship. I recommend this coach to any age group at any stage of their cricket journey.

His ability to nurture not just cricketing ability but also character is what makes him exceptional. Young players leave his sessions not only better cricketers but also more disciplined and confident individuals.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #14 – Ashok N.

“A seasoned coach who nurtures passion.”

CCA was a great find to nurture my son’s cricket passion. Dr. Masud is a seasoned coach under whose guidance my son is learning the nuances of the game. The facilities at CCA are also quite impressive, and the kids get to train in a professional yet welcoming environment.

It’s reassuring to see my son so engaged and excited about his training. Masud’s experience and calm demeanour make him an ideal mentor for young aspiring cricketers.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #15 – Zia

Masud is an excellent coach and knows how to work with different types of ages and different skill-based players. I would highly recommend Canberra Cricket Academy for starter and advanced players alike.

Whether you are picking up a bat for the first time or looking to refine advanced techniques, Masud tailors his approach to suit your needs. His adaptability is one of his greatest strengths.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #16 – Danish B.

“Perfect for any cricket lover, young or old.”

In my view, every cricket lover—whether young or old—should join Canberra Cricket Academy if they love cricket and would like to improve their cricket skills. My son Humza, at a very young age of four, joined CCA and started his cricket journey here.

The academy provides a solid foundation for young beginners while also offering advanced coaching for more experienced players. It’s a place where passion for the game is nurtured from the very first session.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #17 – Sajid U.

“From self-taught to expert guidance.”

My son Rayyan was so into cricket and was learning by himself through various tutorials and media. He learned as much as he could, but he had reached a point where he needed expert advice. All thanks to Masud, he was able to identify his gaps and provide the structure needed to grow.

Rayyan is now training with purpose and clarity. Masud’s ability to assess and correct technical flaws has given my son the confidence to take his game to the next level.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #18 – Rohit G.

“A big help to my batting.”

Masud was a big help to my batting during the time I have spent under his tutelage. Being a spin bowler, he helped improve my batting technique and mindset against spin bowling. The work I have done under him enabled me to develop the confidence I needed to perform.

His insights into playing spin bowling were particularly valuable. I left each session with clear takeaways and a better understanding of my game.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #19 – Navneet S.

“Appreciate the dedication.”

Thanks, Masud, for spending time with my son on our visit to Canberra and improving his skills. I highly appreciate your coaching methodology and the dedication you have shown to help improve my son’s skills, both batting and bowling. We will definitely have another session with you on our next visit.

Even in a short session, the impact was noticeable. Masud’s ability to quickly identify areas for improvement and provide actionable feedback is impressive.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #20 – Toni M.

“A warm, direct approach that gets results.”

While our 12-year-old has only been working with Masud for a short time, Masud was able to give him good strategies he could implement immediately and get results. That was very motivating for him. Masud has a warm and direct approach that resonates well with young players.

Seeing immediate improvement gave my son a boost in confidence. Masud’s encouragement and technical clarity have made a real difference in a short period.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #21 – Robert W.

“Strong focus on batting technique.”

CCA is a great academy with a particularly strong focus on batting technique. You can tell a batter who has come through CCA by their ability to play straight. Masud is passionate about his cricket and gives players opportunities to develop in a supportive yet challenging environment.

The emphasis on fundamentals—especially playing with a straight bat—sets CCA players apart. Masud’s passion for the game is contagious and inspires players to give their best.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #22 – Ranjan A.

Aavyan joined CCA towards the end of the season. What I have noticed is the marked improvement in Aavyan’s temperament towards the game. He is more focused, composed, and understands what he needs to work on.

Masud’s coaching goes beyond technical skills—he helps players develop the right mindset. That holistic approach is what makes CCA such a valuable experience for young cricketers.

My son has been going to CCA for three years and he is enjoying CCA’s coaching style very much. CCA helped him become a leg spinner and has been providing a lot of coaching, technique corrections, and advice over the years.

The consistency and depth of coaching have been key to his development. Masud’s expertise in spin bowling has given my son the tools and confidence to excel in that role.

My daughter has improved a lot technically after joining sessions with Canberra Cricket Academy. She is technically sound, stronger, and hitting the ball with the correct technique. Great work.
