Description
Mickey Arthur is a man who loves a challenge, no matter where it is. As head coach of South Africa, Australia, Pakistan and now Sri Lanka he has seen it all, and been on his own personal rollercoaster ride. He tells me how he felt he was made a scapegoat for 'Homeworkgate' when he was sacked by Cricket Australia, and how he fell in love with working in Asia. All this has come at a cost though, and Mickey is also frank about the loneliness of being a travelling coach and how you must sacrifice your personal life to do the job properly. But his passion to help his players is what really shines through during our chat - by the end of it you will feel like Mickey is the only coach you would ever want to play for!
