How much of cricket performance is about "you"?

Seems an obvious question, but with so many coaches and resources available, it's easy to forget that it's down to you in the end! The team of David Hinchliffe, Mark Garaway and Sam Lavery talk about how you can do it: as either a coach or a player.

You will get stories and experiences on how to be a cricketer and a cricket coach, all under the umbrella of the idea that you are the only one who can really do it. So, download and listen, think about the answers and come up with your own path.

If it helps, you could win an online coaching course to get some drills and skills to try. Not bad for a 30 minute audio show.

Widnes CC are currently looking for a cricket coach to coach at the club.

Purpose of the role:

To ensure high quality coaching programmes and pre match preparations are written and then delivered.

In the last few weeks I have worked alongside England Rugby's Head Coach, Stuart Lancaster. Stuart has turned the fortunes of the England Rugby team round since he took the post in 2012.

What can we learn as cricket coaches from his story of success?

The main focus areas in his first years in the job have been lessons that can be easily transferred to a cricket club:

You are not a jug.

That's not as obvious a statement as you think. A lot of players - and coaches - think that players are empty jugs, ready to be filled with the liquid of knowledge imparted by the wise master coach.

You get the right coach with the most knowledge an you can do anything. It's why we assume top class players make great coaches: they have set the example to follow.

"The difference between an average cricketer and a top class cricketer is how mentally tough he is."

A recent study has looked at mental toughness through the eyes of cricketers and their coaches. The conclusions have given hope to millions of players.

The work comes from Junaid Iqbal at Leeds University, who researched the latest findings from sport psychology and combined them with experiences from coaches and players at all levels of the game.

His dissertation concluded that mental toughness underpins cricket ability at all levels, and it can be improved in anyone.

Once you know that, you are a step ahead of others still focused on technique alone.

So what does that mean from a practical standpoint?

I'll cut to the chase; there is a simple change to your bowling action that is a big hitter in fault correction.

Straighten your run up.

You see, when it comes to technique, so much that goes wrong can be traced back to an earlier point. That's why batting coaches focus on the grip and stance first, and it's why your bowling coach should look at your run up before he starts with the "business end" of the action.

Of course, a straighter run up will not fix everything, and there are exceptions to the rule. That said, there is plenty that can be done without ever worrying about 6 months of corrective drills and rebuilding your action.

So, spinner or seamer, Here are some of the things a straighter run up can correct:
