Özet
'[An] honest and courageous book' Mike Brearley
'Engrossing...it looks back and thinks ahead, jumps between wit and woe' Lawrence Booth, Mail on Sunday
Following the critical and commercial success of Absolutely Foxed, Graeme Fowler returns with a stunning new book that takes the reader inside the mental side of cricket.


Few sports can be played as much in the mind as cricket. When bowlers are hurling the ball down at your head at 90 mph, or fielders are crowded round the bat waiting to snap up an edge, only the most resilient can thrive. In Mind Over Batter, former Test batsman, commentator and coach Fowler looks into all facets of the game to assess the mental aspect of cricket. What is mental strength? And how can you improve it, or why do some people suddenly lose it? Can the environment in a dressing room have any impact on both mental strength and mental health? When a game builds up to a dramatic climax - how do you train yourself to cope? Can pressure really lead to catastrophic decision-making and even lead players to bend the rules?

Told with his familiar mix of brilliant insight, hilarious anecdotes and moving personal experience of his own mental demons, Fowler delivers a superb portrait of the game. Mind Over Batter will not only shed light on the top echelons of cricket, but it will also provide the reader with many useful ideas on how they can improve their own game and performance - in cricket or in other walks of life. Finally, having resisted for many years despite his own mental health issues, Fowler decides to take a closer look inside his own mind and for the first time undergoes therapy to see if he can work out what makes him tick. What he discovered surprised even him.

'Engrossing...it looks back and thinks ahead, jumps between wit and woe' (Lawrence Booth)
'Unlike so many autobiographies, there's humour and genuine insight... For a former Test opener, Fowler is not afraid to play his shots.' (Huw Turbervill)

Typical northern nuggety anti establishment individual. Funny and profound in equal measure. Wish there was more from Foxy on Audible. Brilliant narrator. Must have been great to be in his team.

Thoroughly enjoyable.

I totally loved it, maybe it's because I'm an opening batter, maybe because I love the game, maybe it's because I too have suffered from depression. Also great impressions by Fowler:)

Absolutely brilliant

As a cricketer a cricket fan and a former Durham University student I found a lot I can relate to in this book. A lot of straightforward common sense about how to play the game, and some colourful storytelling of the characters who make it so unique.

It was brilliant to have Foxy reading the book. This makes an audiobook so much more authentic.

I will now seek out Graeme’s first book.

Cheers Foxy.

A really interesting listen

Brilliant. Great cross over bringing cricket, psychology, practicality and life together whilst talking about life and cricket...
