S1 - E2: Chris Thurgate

This week I chat with one of the founding members of the Chiba Sharks, Chris Thurgate, who takes us through his journey to Japan, years of tough losses which ended with a glorious victory, and latterly his time as an ICC Umpire. His kids get a mention too, and his pride at watching the next generation of cricketers come through and how surreal it was to watch them on TV at the Under 19 World Cup.  Please do remember to rate and review the show...if you liked it...and you can also comment on the Instagram account www.instagram.com/japan_cricket_podcast should you so desire. Remember you can follow the Japan Cricket Association on various social platforms such as: www.twitter.com/CricketJapan www.facebook.com/cricketjapan www.instagram.com/japan_cricket www.youtube.com/JapanCricket While there is also plenty of information on www.cricket.or.jp
