Um, dois, três, Cricket Brasil! - part one, The Final Word in Brazil
Season 19, Episode 6: When the game was looking for good news stories during the Covid pandemic, we found one in Brazil. Five years on, Adam has spent the week there, and what a week. In this first of two eps, he speaks with great friend of the pod Roberta Moretti Avery - now the President of Cricket Brasil - then later chats with her husband Richard, who is coach of the men's team, who have recently joined the women as professional players. Between times, MCC representatives from the women's and men's teams, currently touring the country during the South American championships, share their perspectives on one of the best stories in global cricket.
