Balasubramanian GR

Founder, CaptainsCall

I'm a data science and analytics professional with over a decade of experience transforming data into decisions. From predictive models to business intelligence platforms, I’ve built and led analytics solutions across industries—from SaaS and domain intelligence to FMCG and pharma. My core strengths lie in Python, SQL, Excel, Tableau, and predictive analytics. I hold an engineering degree from CEG, Anna University, and a PGDM from SP Jain, Mumbai—where I developed a strong foundation in both tech and business thinking.

Fuelled by a lifelong love for cricket, I’m building SportsNerd, a one-of-a-kind cricket strategy game. In this game, users become the captain of a team, making real-time tactical decisions that play out in simulated matches. The idea is to test one’s captaincy skills and cricketing IQ by comparing outcomes with real-world captains. It gives fans a deep, hands-on experience of the pressures and complexities faced by captains on the field.

I’m now looking for a passionate tech co-founder or collaborator—someone who shares this love for cricket and has solid engineering experience to help shape, build, and scale this game into something fans everywhere can play, enjoy, and learn from

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."
