In today’s episode, we sit down with Ranjit Bajaj Chief Pusher – Minerva Academy Football & Cricket Club, Delhi Football Club & Armed Forces Aspirants Trainer the man who has produced more Indian football internationals than every ISL club combined, with zero government support, zero corporate funding, and mortgaged gold to send his boys to European tournaments.
We discuss why India with 1.4 billion people has zero dedicated football stadiums, why AIFF paid an astrologer ₹25 lakhs to pick the national team, and why four Indians are currently playing in this World Cup for other countries.
He also breaks down the birth place effect, the dopamine solution to India’s drug problem, the real cost of producing a World Cup player (₹75 lakhs vs the ₹150 crores we paid Messi to wave), and his obsessive science-based Minerva Method that is quietly changing Indian football one child at a time.

This is a fantastic podcast.. the future of Indian football looks bright in Ranjit sir's hand….. I wish him all the very best in his endeavours… We will definitely play in the World Cup very soon
I was really looking forward to this but I'm 7 minutes in and have already had 7 minutes of ads including YouTube ads and the ad within the podcast… I'm out!!!

Jesus christ what a bloody coach…
Where is the 2034 comment? Time stamp?
If you see Portugal, Argentina, they play football, why they don't play Cricket like that. If India is playing Cricket even if they not play football that does not make sense. And one more thing. There are so many countries who play football, but they don't play Cricket, but the countries who play Cricket, it is their wish they want to play football or not. And their player wish And itn Also, depends on the profit. How much I'm getting as a sport minister or something like that? And even if India is not good in football, it is better in Cricket and the whole world. Even in future, if Portugal, Argentina or any country comes to play Cricket Australia, India, England West Indies will be on top and the strongest team, especially Australia and India, will be the strongest team in the Cricket. So we should not see only the one phase. We should see the opposite face.Also I play put the games football and cricket , but I am just saying you reality , that's all
oh my god…..RAj its totally an eye opener……thank you so much…..this is your one of the best PC i ever watched
