E2 - E6: Shizuka Miyaji talks FairBreak Invitation 2022 (and other stuff)
Listen now
Description
Last month Shizuka Miyaji became the first professionally contracted player to make an appearance in a franchise T20 League. The FairBreak Invitational 2022 took place in Dubai and I caught up with "Zu" to hear all about her experiences, the players she played against and alongside, what she learned and that MVP performance.  Following that we revisit how Zu got into cricket, the Bronze Medal at the 2010 Asian Games and where women's cricket in Japan goes from here.  For those who like to skim through, here's the breakdown: Start - 04:30: Domestic Round Up 04:30 - 22:00: FairBreak Invitational 22:00 - 25:40: Early Life 25:40 - 34:00: Cricket and Playing for Japan 34:00 - 37:47: Cricket Specific Questions 37:47 - Finish: Japan Specific Questions As always if you have time to rate or review the show that would be great, or even just recommend it to one other person who might be interested, that'd be good too. You can follow the show on Instagram and you should also check out BRB Munde on Spotify, Apple Music or wherever you get your tunes, big thanks to him for the backing music for the show.
