More than one chance Often I get an email from cricketers asking for "just one chance". The truth is that one chance is not how you become a cricketer That's also why it gets harder to make it as a cricketer every year you pass the age of 21. It takes a long time to master the game, so if you are not a long way down the path by this age, you won't be able to get to the required standard before you get too old. Don't rely on becoming the next Dirk Nannes . People don't arrive in professional cricket out of nowhere. There is always a story of hard work and overcoming setbacks . If you want to become a cricketer then be realistic. Look at your age, your background, your successes and your ability to overcome failures. Only then can you decide if you truly have a chance.
