As per the latest ICC census, more than 50,000 Malaysians played some form of cricket organized by the Malaysian Cricket Association in 2019. For this episode, I'm joined by Malaysian Women's skipper Winifred Duraisingam and Men's team batter Virandeep Singh. 

Wini will be leading Malaysia at the upcoming T20 World Cup Qualifier in Dubai, which I, Jay Dansinghani, will be commentating on! The winner of that tournament — which also features hosts UAE, Hong Kong, Nepal, Kuwait and Bhutan — will advance to next year's Global Qualifier for the 2023 T20 World Cup.  

Virandeep Singh, on the other hand, is widely regarded as Malaysia's best batter, who shot to prominence during the Nepal Tri-Series in April that also featured the Netherlands. 

Viran and Wini talk to us about their cricketing journeys and more!
