Chan is in Tainan to play local teams at Chang Jung Christian University today and tomorrow.

The Craigengower Cricket Club are to play a university team, Shih Hu Junior High School and the Darling Daredevils in a mixture of 11-a-side and Sixes matches, with men and women from Hong Kong and Taiwan involved.

Chan told the Taipei Times by e-mail that she is excited to visit Taiwan.

“This is my first time to come to Taiwan,” she said. “I know a lot of cricketers in Taiwan come from a baseball background, so they are very skillful at batting… I can foresee they will have more opportunities to improve their skills.”

Chan knows something about skills. On March 19, she made the season’s top score in their 131-run victory over USRC in a Hong Kong Cricket Association Cup game at the Po Kong Village Reservoir ground.     [FULL  STORY]
