In a this episode of Cyrus Says, Anjum Chopra—former Indian cricketer, Arjuna Awardee, and pioneering sportscaster—unpacks her storied career and groundbreaking contributions to cricket. From her international debut in 1995 to retiring in 2012, Chopra’s legacy includes 2,856 ODI runs, a World Cup final (2005), and leading India in six ODIs. Post-retirement, she shattered glass ceilings as the first Indian woman to commentate on men’s cricket (IPL, World Cups) and authored the memoir "The Journey" (2018), chronicling her path as India’s earliest female cricket icon.

The episode delves into her Delhi roots (00:00), early defiance of gender norms (06:18), and the spark that ignited her cricket passion (15:30). She recounts pivotal moments like her debut (28:10), career highs like her 98 in Tests vs England (35:35), and insights on WPL vs IPL dynamics (44:00). Chopra also shares wisdom for emerging players (49:40) and lighter tales from her marathon runs and documentary "Shooting Stars" (54:33).
