Why 4Cast? – With sportspersons busy improving their skills on the field, understanding and developing business acumen aren’t their forte. However, with players looking to secure their future after retirement, many have built an empire around them. Sahcin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli besides MS Dhoni are the best examples in cricket.

Hence, KL Rahul jumped at the prospect when Ben Stokes offered him a stake in the business.

“The idea of 4CAST is to have people around who are enthusiastic about sport, but also have some idea about business. We realise an athlete’s career is short… more than half of our life exists after sport, and we need something to fall back on. It is a huge responsibility for an athlete to look after his future. I am happy to be associated with 4CAST and can’t wait to grow with the company,” Rahul explained.
