Welcome to The Cricket Mind Podcast.

This short trailer introduces a podcast focused on the mental, tactical, and human side of cricket — through honest, long-form conversations rather than soundbites or slogans.

Hosted by Nathan Wood (ex Lancashire cricketer, former Head of Coach Development for England Cricket, and ECB Level 4 coach), alongside Briony Brock (mindset coach and current player), the podcast explores the challenges cricketers at all levels face. From managing nerves and pressure, to responding to mistakes and performing with freedom, the conversations are practical, grounded, and rooted in real experience.

There’s no jargon, no judgement, and no hype. Just clear thinking, useful tools, and thoughtful discussion designed to help players, coaches, and parents better understand the mental side of the game.

What does the Ashes teach us about mindset, technique and performing under pressure in cricket?

In this first episode of The Cricket Mind Podcast, Nathan Wood and Briony Brock explore why cricket is such a uniquely mental game — and why an over-focus on technique can sometimes hold players back.

Using insights from the Ashes, they unpack how mindset shapes performance at every level, from junior cricket to the international stage, and what players, parents and coaches can learn about preparation, adaptability and handling pressure.

1. Why cricket places unique psychological demands on players
2. When technique helps — and when it holds players back
3. The pressures facing young cricketers in modern systems
4. Confidence, resilience and independent thinking
5. Self-talk, visualisation and common mental traps
6. Lessons from the Ashes: adaptability, leadership and preparation

Players, parents and coaches who want to understand performance in cricket beyond technique alone — and help cricketers think, prepare and perform more effectively.

Why do some players struggle to let go of a mistake?

In this episode of The Cricket Mind Podcast, Nathan Wood and Briony Brock explore why mistakes can linger in your mind — and what actually helps you reset and move on.

Drawing on real examples from junior cricket through to the professional game, this episode looks at:

• Why resilience is about recovery, not pretending you’re fine

• The difference between strength and emotional adaptability

• How unprocessed emotions show up later as anger, fear, or loss of confidence

• Why crying and anger are signals, not weaknesses

• How boys and girls are often taught resilience differently

• What coaches and parents can do to support resilience without blocking it

• How long resilience takes to develop — and what progress actually looks like

This is a practical, honest conversation for players, parents, and coaches who want to help cricketers recover better from mistakes, pressure, and disappointment — both on and off the field.
