When I first received a copy of Second Innings: On Men, Mental Health and Cricket, (Fremantle Press) back in June, 2021, I read it in two sittings and immediately tried to line Barry up for an Interview. It wasn’t until December I was able to talk to him and it was worth the wait. Trigger Warning: if anything in the interview affects you, please talk to someone. Contacts below.
