– It’s not a dream but a new possibility for Japan –
Former professional baseball player Shogo Kimura will challenge the Indian Premier League (IPL), the world’s highest professional league of cricket, to become the first Japanese IPL player.
This challenge has the potential to open up a second career for not only professional baseball players but also amateur players who have abandoned baseball.
While playing a role in popularizing cricket in Japan, it`s challenging to open a new path with the responsibility as the first cricket challenger who played in Nippon Professional Baseball Organization（NPB) .
