The Psychology of Cricket: Developing Mental Toughness [Cricket Academy Series] (Sport Psychology)

Firstly, thank you for a cricket-specific book for mental toughness in the game! The content is placed very well, just like the flow of the game. Giving anecdotal evidences and quotes makes the book appealing even to a layman/ player. Its a book meant for all- academicians, coaches and the players as well. It is a good reference book for me as a sport psychologist in India, trying to get the young players involved in mental training. Thank you Jamie and Stewart!Varadayini Chitale, India

Great insight into an area that is essential for success - what happens between the ears! I know, from experience of working with thousands of young people in educational and sports environments, that it's mental skills that make the difference. This book is well written with real insight into the challenges of achieving elite performance in cricket, where you have distinct, continuous one-on-one battles within a team sport. Being able to perform at your best when it matters most defines winners and being able to perform under pressure is crucial, as we have seen in the last test series! The tools and techniques in this book can certainly help with this at every level and many can be transferred into everyday life.An excellent read and would definitely recommend it to players and coaches who want to continuously improve individual and team performance.

Good insight for any sportsman or coach

Good read on sports psych even though I'm not a cricket fan!

My son (aged 13) has really enjoyed reading this book and he says it has helped him greatly with his cricket
