Enjoyed seeing England blitz the Australian cricket team here in the UK and it made me wonder if some table tennis coaching could help them read the spin and direction better. Perhaps some mental preparation would help also laughing.

I did catch the end of the last show 162 and I daren't ask a question live in case you banded me. I love listing to the show and have learnt a great deal. I feel sorry for your pain but how do you recover from such a defeat I have been 11-0 a couple of times in team matches and I wonder have you any suggestions on how to recover from it. There are games where it seems every shot no matter how good just either clips the net or misses an edge.
