Paul Nixon Interview
I read a great interview / profile with Paul Nixon in the Sunday Times today, which they have also placed on their website. Paul Nixon Interview Here. Having read it, it gives a sense that he is one of the genuine guys who just goes out to play cricket to the best he can at any situation, and I think he comes really well out of it. I particularly like how he explains he isn’t a sledger. Apparently:
“I am not a sledger, I don’t do that. All I do is drip-feed negativity into a man’s brains. Whether you use physical stuff or technical stuff, you play with their minds.â€
He he, negativity- sledging, its all the same if you ask me!
There are then some great examples he’s used in Australia in the winter about talking to Clarke and Symonds amongst others. It also explains how much of a nutter he seems with regards to training! It really is a great interview and I suggest you go and read it. Paul Nixon Interview Here
With the England team seemingly unsure about which wicket keeper to use at the moment, if Paul Nixon has a good world cup there should be no reason why he can’t continue in the role in the test matches this summer. There are plenty of candidates out there as I’ve explained before, particularly Matt Prior who has been scoring some good runs in the England ‘A’ Tour at the moment. But if ‘Nico’ is the one in possesion of the gloves, then he should be given the chance for the summer should he not?!
