In this episode, Tino Best talks about his love for the high jump in school and how it helped him with his run up. He also discusses the importance of preparation and stretching to avoid a tight back. Tino goes on to explain how fitness, nutrition and training is a lifestyle and he gives examples of how you can plan your training schedule. He also stresses the importance of sacrifices and how he uses disappointment as fuel to push him further.

In this episode, we speak to former West Indian fast bowler, Tino Best.

Tino explains how important attitude is for a fast bowler. Tino revisits the moment he announced himself to the West Indies Cricket Board when he hit Gary Kirsten on the head with his very first ball in a practice session.

We also discuss how he trains, his views on rhythm and how he relies on power to generate top speed.

Tino goes on to shed incredible insight on the time he worked with Wayne Daniel and made technical changes to his bowling action during a four-week training camp which resulted in him bowling faster than ever before.

With just under 48 hours until the Indian Premier League 2021 kicks off, we got some special guests together to discuss what the Keys2Victory are for each team.
