• How many English players can score a club triple century and have hope of playing in the International side? Perhaps this is the difference between the old enemies.
• A couple of great posts in a week from Vern Gambetta: 11 things all cricketers need to succeed and 5 thoughts on team sport training.
• Sport training guru Mike Boyle discusses functional training on his forum. It's all very applicable to cricket.
• 6 Sport training mistakes. Interesting points if you are considering using plyometric training as a way to improve speed and power and that you can only improve 2-3 things at a time (speed, strength, power) the rest ismaintenance.
