Ben Duckett - Pakistan Series Special
I was lucky enough to sit down with England opening batsman Ben Duckett following the incredible win by the England Test Team on Monday 5th December 2022, in what is being dubbed one of the best Test matches of all time. Ben scored a ton in the opening innings, followed by a golden duck in the second, but played a significant role in this test win. We sat down to chat about his recall to the England set up and playing test cricket, the pressure he has put on himself as well as his relationship with partying early in his career.This episode is sponsored by Sixes Social Cricket.

Into the archives: Dr Alex George
This episode of Headstrong was recorded in Summer 2019. Dr Alex was the first ever guest on Headstrong, and there is a lot of important content in the conversation, particularly surrounding mental health. Dr Alex has just been made an ambassador for mental health by Prime Minister Boris Johnson, so I felt it important to be re-released.I hope you enjoy this episode, 'Into the archives'. Thank you to Dr Alex and all of the staff in the NHS. Stay at home, protect the NHS, save lives. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/headstrongpodcast. Hosted on Acast.
