Cricket, Wonderful Cricket

Boundaries, maidens, Botham, and Bell; centuries, dinks, Lara, and Laker . . . in this amazing collection of interviews, John Duncan explores the idiosyncratic, historical, and entertaining game of cricket through people who share a true passion for the sport. Drawing upon various memories of some of the most respected names in British culture, business, and politics--including Michael Parkinson, Sir Tim Rice, and the Duke of Edinburgh--and covering a variety of topics such as classic matches and personal cricketing heroes, Cricket, Wonderful Cricket is an entertaining and unique insight into the eccentric and indeed wonderful game of cricket.
