History

The roots of the organisation can be traced to the formation of the Guntur Recreation Club in 1951 which was affiliated to the Madras Cricket Association. The Andhra Cricket Association was eventually formed in 1953.[2]

C. K. Nayudu, the first captain of Indian cricket team, was instrumental in the formation of Andhra Cricket Association.[2][1] He was the founder president of ACA.[3][4] C. K. Nayudu and his brother C. S. Nayudu played in Guntur and mentored the local cricketers.[4] C. K. Nayudu, aged 58, led Andhra team in its first Ranji Trophy match against Mysore in the 1953–54 season.[1] He also scored the team's first-ever fifty in that match.[5]

The ACA has produced international players namely M. S. K. Prasad and Venugopal Rao. Many players from the ACA have played for India U-19s including D Sivakumar, Gnaneswara Rao (captained India U19s), GVS Prasad, Bodapati Sumanth and more recently Ricky Bhui.
