Abdul “Majid Bhai” Siddiqi

Founder, 12th Man Holdings

Abdul Majid Siddiqi, known to most people as Majid Bhai, is the founder of 12th Man Holdings, the cricket investment company he started in Dubai in 2025. It was born from his love of the game, and it invests in cricket teams, leagues and the businesses that support them.

12th Man Holdings is the sports division of Majid Bhai Capital, the global investment group he founded and leads as Managing Director. The group has its head office at Puteri Harbour in Johor, Malaysia, and six offices across Malaysia, the UAE, India, Canada and the United States.

Before cricket came real estate. He has spent more than 21 years as an owner and operator, and has owned, managed, brokered and developed more than $500M of property. He brings the same discipline to sport: test the downside first, then build for the long term.

He also chairs the Majid Bhai Foundation, which funds education, enterprise, elder care and disaster relief in India.

“Bhai” means brother. It is on the door of every company in the group, and it is how he expects each one to treat its partners, tenants and communities.
