With his usual smile on his face, like he was fielding in the covers, the former middle order batsmen in his own words said, “You will have to love the game, love the battles, love the challenges, evolve and expand your horizons, be prepared to defy the norm, in other words be different, players who do make the game very exciting to watch.” He told the young participants.
“Games are won by runs and wickets not theories and illustrations. There is an interesting story of a coach saying to his pupils after he banged this particular ball to the boundary, “Look where your feet are” only to be greeted with “look where the ball is” Now I am not saying don’t try and get all the mechanics right but I personally feel that we are somehow over obsessed with techniques when there are a lot of other qualities that needs to be stressed upon to get the best out of ourselves.” Logie stressed on.
Logie also touched on the personal development aspect of the young players when he said, Your strengths and weaknesses, lie in being aware of the opportunities and threats that exist in your social life, knowing and doing what is necessary to achieve your immediate goals in life, knowing and doing what is necessary to realize your potential as a rounded human being , becoming aware of the importance of a group or team in the achievements of goals especially as it relates to cricket and knowing where to go for help at critical points in the process.”
