Over the years, Tim Wigmore has penned several superb books, and this might be his best yet. Joining Daniel Norcross at lunch during a recent Surrey game, he sat down to discuss the book he wrote because it is the one he would like to read – always a good place to start. From Test cricket's conception, he maps the lot: scarcity and status, empire to expansion, racism and rivalries, existential angst to equipment. It's underpinned by extensive interviews with some of the greatest to have ever done it, exploring the intrigue of a form of the game that we hold so dear yet would not emerge if it were invented today.

Today's episode was prompted by a question posed by author, journalist and regular listener Mike Jakeman: How do you market test cricket successfully?"The national cricket boards have figured out that the big money comes from success in the shorter formats. And certainly in England, their focus has been on building success in one day in 2020. It's been very successful. England obviously won the 2019 ICC World Cup and they reached the final of the T20 World Cup late last year.But test cricket, it's fun too. And it delivers slow burn, sporting excellence in ways that limited overs cricket just can't replicate. So how do we sell test cricket to broadcasters, sponsors and even the cricket boards themselves?"To answer Mike's question we recruited Omar Chaudhuri and Tony Singh. Tony Singh is the chief commercial officer of the England and Wales cricket board, leading the teams responsible for all ECB fan engagement and revenue generating activity across England cricket, The Hundred, recreational and professional games. Omar Chaudhuri  is chief intelligence officer at Twenty First Group, which advises sports bodies, such as the Premier League, European Tour, USGA and Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. This conversation builds on other cricket related podcasts.Omar is a former guest on the podcast where we talked about jeopardy and the use of data to inform sporting formats - UP181 The Business of Jeopardy. Also mentioned in the podcast is the excellent Sky Sports Ashes Vodcast, featuring Ian Ward, Mike Atherton, Nasser Hussain and Rob Key.Our conversation with ECB CEO Tom Harrison is referenced, from May 2021.

What makes an elite sports star suddenly unable to do the very thing they have been practising for years? And is there anything they can do about it? By A Mark Williams and Tim Wigmore. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/longreadpod

Mark Williams has spent his career studying expertise and is one of the world’s leading authorities on skill acquisition in sport. His book, co-written with journalist Tim Wigmore, is called The Best, How Elite Athletes Are Made and includes stories and interviews with many leading sports stars including Marcus Rashford, Steph Curry, Helen Glover and many more. So what can we learn from these people about how to be better at what we do in other spheres? How do some of the book’s themes apply beyond sport and are there patterns to the ‘best’ organisations? What are the limits of the sports metaphor in training business people? How much of success is about culture? Do businesses ever grow beyond the culture of their founders? What are the traps of using data as the basis of decision making and how valid is the idea that technology spend is the key competitive advantage in sport/business in the future?

In an NFL season full of unlikely things, the Washington Football Team notched a real head-scratching outcome when they handed the Pittsburgh Steelers their first loss of the season, 23-17. The victory came as a surprise, since Washington’s record is just 5-7. But it seems that hope is starting to brew for Washington fans, and even the NFC East as a whole. ESPN’s John Keim has covered the NFL in Washington since the 1990s. He breaks down how far the team might go, the amazing return of QB Alex Smith after a near-fatal injury, and how head coach Ron Rivera has run the team while battling cancer. Then, author Tim Wigmore of “The Best: How Elite Athletes Are Made” talks about younger siblings’ athletic advantage.

This week's guest is Professor Mark Williams who has spent his professional career understanding the neural and psychological aspects of acquiring skills and developing expertise. Mark has recently published a fascinating book called “The Best”. The subtitle of the book captures your attention though, “How elite athlete are made”. Now you might starting jumping to conclusions that the book tends towards the nurture side of nature vs nurture, but you'd be mistaken. Mark and his co-author Tim Wigmore weave a narrative from the social, economic, environmental and family factors that contribute to success. And in this discussion I explore many of these concepts but ask Mark given that we have a certain set of cards dealt to us, what can we do as athletes, coaches, parents and supporting members of the cast to enable others to succeed, enable others to grow especially during a disruptive pandemic. Enjoy the pod.   Notes Does Mark constantly analyse performance and expertise? What is expertise? Sibling advantage Maintaining an optimal learning environment in lockdown Using time in lockdown wisely to hone our weaknesses The differences between performance and learning, variations in briefing levels of challenge and reflection Helicopter parenting How to enable athletes to live a life well outside of sport Personal effectiveness and developing successful teams The joint curation of group rules, norms and behaviours, enables the agreed consequences of breaking the group agreements   Links Take a look at Mark's new book, ‘The best; How elite athletes are made'. https://www.markwilliamssportsscience.com/ Steve Ingham on Twitter www.twitter.com/ingham_steve Supporting Champions on; Twitter www.twitter.com/support_champs Linkedin, www.linkedin.com/company/supporting-champions Instagram, https://www.instagram.com/supportingchampions If you're ambitious to work in sports performance, and you realise that there's no golden ticket to the chocolate factory – that you have to learn and develop and build a network of collaborators to get there – then sign up for our Graduate Membership today – go to http://supportingchampions.co.uk/membership/ and enrol.

Episode 4 - Women's sport and the "basic economics" myth In India, cricket is often considered a "religion" rather than a sport. What we forget, is that this is when referring to men's cricket, not necessarily women's, or at least, not yet. In this podcast we speak to former Indian cricketers, Anjum Chopra, who captained the national side for a decade, and Snehal Pradhan, as well as a couple of teenagers prospering under the sport-led charity, the Magic Bus India Foundation. We discuss the potential of women's sport, both on the field and in terms of gender equality more widely, and ask whether it is ahead or behind where it should be - standards-wise, commercially and the coverage it receives.
