“Successful delivery has involved close partnering with the client and depended on the skills, expertise and experience of our international masterplanning team, and we aim to support the delivery of the future projects through our global network, and in particular our London and Mumbai-based teams of expert planners, architects and designers.”

The project follows a brand licence agreement, signed between MCC Overseas Limited (MCCO), a newly incorporated subsidiary of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), and Anglo Indian.  MCCO is licensing Anglo Indian the right to use some of MCC’s marks in India in connection with a range of cricket-themed facilities to be built in up to 12 new communities with residential sites.

The new communities will be developed and operated by Anglo Indian, in up to 12 locations from Delhi in the north to Bangalore in the south of India. All will follow similar lines with an MCC-branded cricket academy and ground, together with an MCC Lord’s branded members’ club.

Anglo Indian chairman Simon Reid said: “Anglo Indian is actively negotiating agreements with developers and landowners in multiple locations across India. The development schedule will vary according to the scale of individual projects, but will generally take two to three years from commencement to completion, starting with the building of the MCC Cricket Academy, the Club and associated retail and hospitality facilities, around which a full range of housing will be planned.”
