Manchester City psychologist joins England cricket team camp for 2024 T20 World Cup

The Cityzens are ready to let their main mastermind head to the England cricket team for a short-term role

A very interesting news that sees a little sharing and merging of the football world with cricket in England. As we all know the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup will kickstart on June 2. The defending champions, the England national cricket team will be doing their every bit to retain the title.

The tournament will be hosted by the West Indies and the USA in a combined effort to light up the ninth edition of the T20 World Cup.

Amongst a cluster of 20 teams, it is the United States who will go head to head against Canada’s national cricket team in the event opener. England fans will have to wait however as their opening clash is scheduled for June 4 against Scotland’s national cricket team.

Head coach of the England cricket team, Matthew Mott has taken all measures possible to try and retain the T20 World Cup title. In an interesting move, Mott has hired a former team psychologist for a short-term cause. David Young is the psychologist in question who was previously a member of England’s cricket crew from 2016 to 2020.

After that Young switched sports to join Premier League giants Manchester City. No wonder why City have managed to win four successive league titles since his appointment. The Cityzens have already secured the 2023-24 PL title while also having played their final league game against West Ham United.
