The 2022 FairBreak Invitational (the Tournament) is an ICC sanctioned competition that will be held in Dubai from May 1-15, 2022 in association with Cricket Hong Kong. This six-team tournament will feature players from around the world. It will be the first privately funded tournament in the history of women’s cricket, with leading healthcare group Gencor as the main sponsor.
