Another very good read! My cue for turning back on is adjusting my glove straps

My switching back on is placing my back foot right on its mark, three toe taps with the bat and then a big breath and high raise of the bat followed by a simple mantra of not out, not out or watch the ball.

Some good tips - I think I'll start saying things out loud, well under my breath rather than just in my head.

Weird, after reading that article subconsciously I found myself saying fierce focus to myself as the bowler was running in. Seemed to work, batted through to win us the game, 75*.
