MLC captains talk US Cricket growth

The Long Game: Saurabh Netravalkar, Between Two Worlds: Interviews with the Subject and Dicrector

In the high-stakes world of Silicon Valley, balancing a demanding tech career is a triumph in itself. Doing so while simultaneously engineering one of the greatest upsets in international sports history is the stuff of Hollywood. Now, that exact story is getting the premium cinematic treatment. Willow by Cricbuzz has made its first original feature-length documentary, The Long Game: Saurabh Netravalkar, Between Two Worlds. The highly anticipated film debuted on Willow TV on Wednesday, and is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video — to coincide kickoff of the 2026 Major League Cricket (MLC) season. The project marks a massive milestone for Willow, signaling its expansion from a live sports broadcaster into premium, narrative-driven storytelling. To pull it off, they teamed up with heavy-hitting industry talent. The documentary is produced by Academy Award winner Adam Leipzig, who we spoke to in this interview- Leipzig famously known for the 2006 cultural phenomenon March of the Penguins. Marking Leipzig’s 40th feature film and directed by Pierre Friquet, The Long Game aims to transcend the boundaries of traditional sports documentaries. “Saurabh represents a kind of determination and clarity that reaches far beyond cricket,” Leipzig shared. “Whether you know the sport or not, this is a story about persistence, identity, and achieving something that once felt impossible... That’s what makes his story powerful.” This is a public episode.
