Description
You might not recognise the name of this episode’s guest, but you’ll certainly know some of the people he’s worked with. Kit Perera is an Auckland cricket legend, and in his capacity as a coach at Suburbs New Lynn has helped players like Jimmy Neesham, Jeet Raval, Ajaz Patel and Martin Guptill fine-tune their techniques and mental approach to the game. Alex and Simon pick his brain about cricket etiquette, coaching in low-decile schools and how lessons learned from cricket can be applied to life, before committing to a punishing podcast schedule for the fast-approaching World Test Championship final. The Offspin is brought to you with the support of our friends at The Beer Spot.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
