The best book I've read on cricket! And I don't hope to read anything better than this in the rest of my life. Made me fall head over heels with the game of cricket and let me make it clear, falling all over again and again.. has it's own charm!
Highly recommended for anyone who loves this game.. Mind you, in love with game.. not with a country or a club or individual who plays it!
