In this week’s podcast, we are joined by Dr Mahmood to discuss how we can support the mental health of elite cricketers. Dr Mahmood is a psychiatrist based in Birmingham, England, who recently authored a chapter about mental health emergencies in cricket in a new textbook, Case Studies in Sports Psychiatry. In this 15-minute podcast, Dr Mahmood explores mental health screening, the difference between sports psychologists and psychiatrists, and how cricket can learn from other sports to improve the wellbeing of all athletes.
