4 thousand for 3. Okay, that's a little over the top, but it represents the chasm between Zimbabwe's test cricket team and the rest. Overnight the Black Caps turned the screws on the hopelessly out classed Africans, piling on the runs at Bulawayo, at stumps NZ had extended their lead to 476, amassing 603 for the loss of 3. Centuries for Conway, Nicholls, and Ravindra, with the latter two still at the crease, represents a sound flogging after only two days of cricket. If this was softball, the mercy law would've sent them all home. The oft used phrase in circumstances such as this is ‘you can only play who's been put in front of you', which is accurate but wholly depressing when this game has been given faux test status. This should never have been the case. This should have been part of a New Zealand A tour, which it essentially is when the lineup is taken into account. The Black Caps are without a number of their go to first XI yet are still poleaxing the opposition. The match is not part of the World Test Championship which further erodes any import the game thought it had. We all understand that Zimbabwe cricket needs to be nursed along, but is this exchange benefitting them or merely serving as a reminder of how poor Zimbabwe cricket is? This series isn't helping anyone. The fresh Black Caps aren't being exposed to any clear and present threats, the older and returning players inflating their averages, essentially masking the efficacy of their input. It may pump up their tires but with little test cricket on the horizon, is there a point to it? This series should never have been afforded test status. Still, it's cricket in whites, so I'll watch it. Tragic. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Crystal Nicholls is in the studio this month! She is a wellness coach and former West End dancer born in Barbados and now based in London.Crystal spent six years in The Lion King on the West End, and she also danced on cruise ships, and in TV, commercials, and film projects before transitioning into the health and wellness space for the performing arts. She's spoken about how performing eight shows a week, while an amazing experience, was also relentless and led to a sense of burnout.That experience ignited another passion for her: helping other performers feel their best. During the 2020 lockdowns, Crystal got to work retraining as a holistic health coach and nutrition specialist. With a BFA in Performance Dance and more than a decade on the stage, she combines lived experience with science-backed strategies in her coaching work. Her clients include West End performers, commercial dancers, TV actors, companies, and even performers who are transitioning into new careers. She spoke with me about her journey from dancer to coach and how she works to support performer health and change the narrative each dancer carries about their body and their career. She also shared some behind the scenes stories and insights from her dance career and gave her best advice to adult dancers about how to hold on to joy when dancing, balance busy lives, and ways they play a crucial role in the wellness conversation. I loved hearing from Crystal about why health and wellness shouldn't be a luxury, but one of the foundations of dance as an art form.

SummaryIn this episode of Trainer's Bullpen, host Chris Butler welcomes Professor Adam Nichols back to the Bullpen to discuss the concept of mental toughness, particularly in the context of law enforcement training. They explore the definitions of mental toughness and resilience, the importance of developing these traits in high-pressure situations, and the role of coaches in fostering a supportive environment. The conversation delves into practical strategies for enhancing mental toughness through training, including creating pressure situations, balancing stress levels, and promoting a mastery climate. Additionally, they discuss the significance of self-reference goals and the impact of mental imagery on performance readiness. In this conversation, Adam discusses the intricate relationship between mental toughness, sport intelligence, and performance.

By subjugating Ukraine, Putin hopes to reassert Russia's status as a great power, discourage other neighbours from pivoting west, and distract from domestic issues through nationalist fervour. Ultimately, Putin fears the erosion of Russia's imperial legacy and the contagion of democratic aspirations among his own people—making Ukraine not just a strategic interest, but an existential concern for his rule and survival. It's not about economic, territory or minerals, so why would Putin stop until he has erased Ukraine as a sovereign entity and a bulwark of democratisation? ----------Dominic Nicholls is Associate Editor for Defence) at the Telegraph and co-host of podcast ‘Ukraine: The Latest'.

Running a small business should be challenging—but fulfilling. For Gail Nicholls, owner of a rural pet and livestock supply store in South Carolina, it's become a daily struggle against endless state regulations. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Gail to hear how red tape and paperwork have kept her from doing what she loves—serving customers, growing her business, spending time with family, and going to church. Gail shares why she stepped up to testify in support of the Small Business Regulatory Freedom Act, a bill that would require some state regulations to be approved by the legislature before going into effect. Her story is a powerful reminder of the real-world consequences of overregulation—and how one voice can make a difference.
