An international sports playing at the highest level went from winning about 5% of their games to winning 70%. The squad of players changed little. They got a new captain, but he had been in the team for years.

What really changed was the coach and, most importantly, the mindset. The coach and the captain have taken away the fear of failure and now they rarely fail.

In fact, they have become not just winners but an inspiration.

Has the last word on coaching sports teams been written? Is this the way to manage any team in sport, in work, anywhere? This is the story of the life lessons from the England cricket team and 'Bazball'.

We are two Brits, cups of tea, custard creams and our ramblings on the best of sport, TV, films, books and everything else we like. Join us and join in. Comment on the sorts of things you would like to talk about. Intro/outro music - Ravel's Bolero by the awesome Daniel Bautista - https://www.danielbautista.com/
