WI draft in sports psychologist

Hobart, Dec 9: West Indies have turned to a sports psychologist to help them out of their form slump before next week's third Test against Australia.

They have asked a local psychologist - a bravery award winner for saving the lives of 19 people in a hurricane - to guide them as they try to battle back from big defeats in the first two Tests.

Captain Jimmy Adams asked for a professional motivator before the game against Australia 'A' on Saturday - but the pep talk appeared to have made little impact as the hosts amassed 306 for four.
