Marcus Trescothick, Cricketer

The Interview Archive

Available for over a year

Marcus Trescothick is one of England's top cricketers and has again enjoyed a successful summer for his county side. But not for his country. Trescothick gave up playing for the national side three years ago after suffering debilitating depression while touring abroad. He tells Owen Bennett-Jones of his struggles with the disease, and why cricketers in particular appear susceptible to it.
