Are there any lessons from your time in cricket that you take into work or life in general?
As a High School Principal for 15 years I took lessons into the game. Communication, individual differences in personality, importance of empathy, management skills, ability to let players have their say but know when to draw the line. Cricket is a just a microcosm of life. It does not build character but reveals it!!
