aker was Anthony “Harry" Moffitt (left) who has served Australian defence forces for 30 yrs and working as a psychologist. He highlighted the importance of Cricket and golf games to relieve anxiety during deployments and worthwhile reading his Eleven Bats his extraordinary memoir.I am thinking playing some cricket with my son even in the nets to relieve some anxiety after going through this pandemic period as a true front line medical practitioner.
