Over time one of Ed Cowan greatest strengths was how well his knew his game. It’s fair to say it served him very well as his successful career would indicate.
In June 2013 before the Ashes tour in England Ed took the time to provide an insight in a video with Australian Cricketers Association into his approach to batting and the mental battle batsmen face every time they take guard.
Great coaching and an insightful tool for cricketers at any level.
