Selection Day (Season 1)

Selection Day (2018) is an Indian Netflix drama available to watch online on iFILM. Directed by Udayan Prasad and Karan Boolani, it adapts Aravind Adiga's novel about two brothers from Mumbai whose father has mapped out their entire future on a cricket pitch.

Fourteen-year-old Manju lands a spot on the under-19 city team — and the rival he has to outperform is his own older brother Radha. Off the field, their father controls every hour and every relationship, turning cricket into something closer to captivity than sport. The series is sharper than a coming-of-age story about a game: it's about what a parent's unchecked ambition does to the people it claims to love. Stream Selection Day (2018) on iFILM.
