Microsoft CEO builds AI Cricket App at leisure time

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has created his own cricket analysis app using artificial intelligence. He built it during his free time over the Thanksgiving holiday, combining his love for technology and cricket.

At an event in Bangalore, Nadella showed how the app works. It can analyze players and teams, help debate choices, and even pick an all-time Indian Test cricket team. Nadella joked that using the app made him want to join Microsoft’s Copilot AI team.

The app, built on Nadella’s Deep Research AI, explains its reasoning and shows where experts might agree or disagree on cricket selections.

Nadella is also a cricket investor. He has stakes in the London Spirit team in the UK’s Hundred league and the Seattle Orcas, a T20 franchise near Microsoft’s headquarters.

This project shows how AI can be used not just for business but also for fun and sports analysis, reflecting Nadella’s personal interests and tech expertise.
