London Spirit Appoint Mo Bobat As Director Of Cricket
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: The Lord’s-based Hundred team will retain the name London Spirit after selling a 49% stake to the Silicon Valley consortium "Tech Titans", with former England performance director Mo Bobat set to take over as director of cricket.
"It's an honour to join London Spirit at such an exciting time. The opportunity to shape the cricketing future of this franchise, working with MCC and our new partners, the Tech Titans, is incredibly exciting. I'm looking forward to building something special - on and off the field," Bobat said.
MCC has been in talks with its new equity partner for some time and plans to unveil refreshed team branding - potentially incorporating the club’s iconic egg-and-bacon colours - ahead of the 2026 season. However, they have chosen to retain the London Spirit name to preserve an identity that embodies "the capital’s energy, diversity, and cricketing heritage".
