Most cricketers set the wrong type of goal, and it's costing them a season of progress. In this video, Mish breaks down what the biggest review of sport goal-setting research ever conducted reveals about the goal type that actually drives performance, and shows you exactly how to build your season around it using a simple top-down framework. Whether you're a batter, bowler, or all-rounder, this is the process for turning vague ambitions into a plan you'll actually follow through on.
