Bolt advice for cricket
MELBOURNE (AUS): Usain Bolt has been working with the Australian cricket team to help them improve their speed, informs the Herald Sun. “It’s all about explosiveness, and that’s one thing I’ve noticed with cricket – they don’t really have a lot of explosiveness when they’re running. They seem to always take off at a slow rate. Getting that right will definitely help people,” said Bolt, who also reiterated that he is still serious about his bid to pursue a footballing career in retirement from athletics. “It’s something that I want to do. I’m trying to get fit now. My doctor finally passed me after my hamstring problems at the World Championships, so now I can start training.”
