Dion Nash was one of the biggest names in New Zealand cricket for a decade in the 1990s with 93 test wickets and a lot of attitude.
He made headlines for his breakout performance at Lords as a fresh-faced NZ international and his involvement in the pot-smoking scandal in SouthAfrica in 1995. Shortly after retiring early due to injury, he became an outspoken player advocate helping to set up the Cricket Players Association, and finally a national selector.
He then transitioned into a successful businessman, learning the ropes with Kiwi brand 42below, where he became a global director, before founding skincare brand Triumph & Disaster, which is now sold in hundreds of retailers around the world.
This week he joins the Between Two Beers podcast. Show notes below.
