Mind guru drafted in to toughen England up for Ashes crusade
BEN STOKES hopes former All Blacks guru Gilbert Enoka will turn England into a winning machine greater than the scrum of their parts.
Rugby legend Enoka has been drafted into the Kiwi cartel running English cricket’s Bazball revolution as a mental skills coach to toughen up the squad for a critical five months, culminating in this winter's Ashes crusade.
As All Blacks mentor, it was Enoka, below, who instigated the famous “no d***heads” policy to ensure no loose cannons rocked the boat in the dressing room.
Ahead of the fourth Test, the two-time rugby World Cup winner has addressed Stokes’ squad — and now England are planning to lead India a Maori dance at Old Trafford.
Enoka has augmented a leadership already containing New Zealanders Brendon McCullum (head coach), Tim Southee (bowling consultant), Jeetan Patel (spin coach) and Christchurch-born skipper Stokes.
And England believe the influence of a psychologist who helped make the All Blacks almost invincible for a decade could help them reach the summit in Test cricket.

Labour inaction lets inflation and shop prices spiral again
YOU MAY have heard that inflation is up. No, this isn't a rerun from last year. It really is up. Again. So much for the “fiscal discipline” and “costed plans” Rachel Reeves bleated on about when she was soliciting votes like a beggar with a tin can. The reality has come to bite: high inflation is back and it's here to stay. And it's ordinary people - working families, renters and small businesses - who are paying the price for this Government's stubborn refusal to change course.
