Tell me honestly... Who the fuck cares about various accessories (like a Walkman) of a cricketer! Well, if you had been a child of 1990s, you would surely care. The book describes each and every aspect of a game of cricket right from a batting stance to the role of press. The book becomes mundane and is (was?) well suited for kids in 1995. However, Atherton, the strategist, as he was known at that time narrates a lot of funny incidences which renders this book at least readable.
