”It All Starts in the Mind” - Why England Dominated India

Senior mentor Scolls chats to Andrew Walton about where he believes England won and India lost last night's T20 World Cup Semi Final, as we believe there are some good lessons for all cricketers. Hopefully you find it interesting and valuable to help you in your own game.

In this chat, Waldo asks Scolls:

1. Where did India fail to set up achieving a better score?
2. How did England use their bowling structure to their advantage?
3. Describe the intent and planning that England applied to the chase?

We hope you enjoy this analysis.
