This is precisely the expertise he is bringing to Super Galaxy Sport's "Earth Care World Series", a cricket league for legendary players, female players, and under-19 players.

Barge has been a mentor, a thought leader, and a career coach for hundreds of people. He has helped founders execute their projects and build their businesses. "I have been fortunate to have completed graduation in Pune's CoEP college and go abroad for a master's degree at Arizona State University. These were the years I met people with different backgrounds and learnt about real-world problems. Blending technology and entrepreneurship, I decided to start investing in brighter ideas and work with passionate people" added Barge.

With Super Galaxy, he saw the opportunity to be associated with cricket on a global scale. "Giving a platform to players coming from the grassroots and bringing awareness about the environment is a noble cause. And it is time we start investing in this change," added Barge.
